BACKGROUND:For dislocation of acromioclavicular joint induced by coracoclavicular ligament fracture,single EndoButton Plate reconstruction and double EndoButton Plates reconstruction are common repair methods.Further study on the stress distribution and fracture risk of the two repair methods is of great significance. OBJECTIVE:To study the biomechanical properties of the coracoclavicular ligament,and compare the fixation effect,stress distribution and failure mode of single and double EndoButton Plates reconstruction. METHODS:(1)Finite element simulation analysis:Mimics,Wrap and SolidWorks were used to establish normal coracoclavicular ligament,single EndoButton Plate reconstruction and double EndoButton Plates reconstruction.Ansys software was used to analyze the stress and deformation of the scapula and clavicle of each model under vertical load.(2)Sample experiment:Fifteen intact scapular-clavicle specimens were randomly grouped into five groups,with three specimens in each group.In group A,the acromioclavicular ligament was severed and the coracoclavicular ligament remained intact.In group B,acromioclavicular ligaments and trapeoid ligaments were severed,leaving intact conical ligaments.In group C,acromioclavicular ligaments and conical ligaments were cut off,and the intact traprex ligaments were retained.In group D,acromioclavicular and coracoclavicular ligaments were severed,and coracoclavicular ligaments were repaired by single EndoButton Plate reconstruction.In group E,acromioclavicular and coracoclavicular ligaments were severed,and the coracoclavicular ligaments were repaired by double EndoButton Plates reconstruction.The mechanical experiment was carried out by a mechanical testing machine to analyze the biomechanical status,stress distribution and failure patterns of the scapular-clavicle and clavicle. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Finite element simulation analysis:The average stress of coracoclavicular ligament attached specimens was the lowest,and the risk of coracoclavicular fracture was less than that of single and double EndoButton Plates reconstruction.The mean stress of the coracoid process was similar in single and double EndoButton Plates reconstruction,and the fracture risk was similar.(2)Sample experiment:In groups A,B,C,D and E,the stiffness of specimens was(26.4±3.5),(19.8±2.8),(21.3±3.2),(57.7±4.1),and(46.2±2.8)N/mm,respectively;the ultimate loads were(545.5±53.7),(360.1±42.1),(250.9±44.4),(643.5±39.1),and(511.9±31.7)N,respectively;global stiffness in groups D and E was higher than that in group A(P=0.000 06,0.000 3);ultimate load in group D was higher than that in group A(P<0.05);the ultimate load was not significantly different between the group E and group A(P>0.05).Ligament fracture was observed in groups A,B and C and coracoid process fracture was found in groups D and E.(3)These results suggest that from the biomechanical analysis,Single EndoButton Plate reconstruction and double EndoButton Plates reconstruction are effective treatment techniques for coracoclavicular ligament fracture in acromioclavicular joint dislocation,but increase the risk of fracture.The double EndoButton Plates reconstruction dispersed the stress of the steel plate and reduced the contact force between the steel plate and bone,but slightly reduced the ultimate bearing capacity.Single and double EndoButton Plates reconstruction should be selected according to the actual clinical situation.

BACKGROUND:The stability of the pelvis is mainly determined by the posterior pelvic ring and the sacroiliac joint.The posterior pelvic ring injury and the dislocation of the sacroiliac joint caused by high energy impacts such as car accidents increase year by year.Surgical treatment is the best method,and there are many kinds of endophytorepair methods in clinical practice,but which treatment method has the best biomechanical properties is still controversial. OBJECTIVE:To compare the biomechanical properties of three kinds of internal implants:anterior double plates,posterior bridging plate and tension nail in the repair of unilateral unstable pelvic posterior ring injury,to provide a reference for the clinical treatment and development of a new pelvic tension screw. METHODS:(1)Finite element simulation:Mimics,Wrap and SolidWorks were used to establish normal pelvic model,unilateral injured pelvis model,and three kinds of internal implant repaired models(anterior double plates,posterior bridging plate and tension nail).Ansys was used to analyze the stress and deformation of the models.(2)Biomechanical test:A total of 15 intact pelvic specimens were randomly grouped into five groups,normal pelvic model,unilateral injured pelvis model,anterior double plates,posterior bridging plate and tension nail groups.The mechanical test was performed using an Instron E10000 testing machine. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Simulation:In the normal pelvic model,the average displacement of the sacrum was 0.174 mm,and the maximum stress of the sacral iliac bone was 10.51 MPa,and the stress distribution was uniform.The mean sacral displacement of the unilateral injured pelvis model was 0.267 mm,and the stress concentration of the model was obvious.The mean displacement of the sacrum in the three repaired models was close to that in the normal pelvic model,and the stress distribution of the sacral iliac bone in the tension nail repaired model was uniform.(2)Mechanical test:The stiffness of the normal pelvic model was(226.38±4.18)N/mm,and that of the unilateral unstable pelvic model was the smallest(130.02±2.19)N/mm.The deviation of the normal pelvic model stiffness and the three repaired models'stiffness were all within(±10%),and the repair effect was obvious.(3)The simulation results were in agreement with the experimental results.(4)The biomechanics of the tension nail repaired model was the most similar to that of the normal pelvis,and this method was the best.The repairing stiffness of the anterior double plate was too large,and the stress shielding effect was more significant.The posterior bridging plate repair could not solve the compensatory effect of the normal side soft tissue and had defects.This study provides an optimal basis for clinical surgery.(5)The new type of pelvic tension nail should be improved from the point of view of the tension nail to retain the good biomechanical properties of the tension nail,while adding other advantages,such as being used for the osteoporotic pelvis.

BACKGROUND:At present,the use of a locking bone plate combined with steel wire or steel cable for the treatment of periprosthetic femoral fracture often adopts monocortical fixation,which is not stable and the proximal end of the bone cannot be achieved anatomically fitted by plate.The customized anatomical plate system can effectively solve this problem. OBJECTIVE:To explore the biomechanical strength of a customized anatomical plate system in fixation of Vancouver BI periprosthetic femoral fracture. METHODS:CT thin layer scanning data of normal femurs of 1 006 cases were selected and input into the MIMICS 21.0 software to establish the three-dimensional reconstruction model of the femur,which was set as the three-dimensional reconstruction group.56 complete human femoral specimens were selected as the femoral specimen group.The measured results of the two groups for femoral anatomical appearance were compared.If there was no significant difference between the two groups,the approximate appearance of a customized anatomical plate system was designed based on the measurement results in MIMICS 21.0 software and NX11.0 software.The customized anatomical plate system was designed and prepared according to the above measurement results.Eight pairs of frozen human femurs were selected to make Vancouver BI periprosthetic femoral fracture,which of the left were thin layer scanned by dual-source CT to obtain data.The data were transferred to determine the customized anatomical plate system model by the above design software.Eight sets of customized anatomical plate systems were ultimately produced,relying on the instrument company.The eight pairs of models were numbered 1-8.The left side was fixed with the customized anatomical plate system(customized anatomical plate system group);the right side was fixed with a metal locking plate system-large locking plate(claw plate group).L1-L4 and R1-R4 were subjected to vertical short-cycle loading test and vertical loading test.L5-L8 and R5-R8 were subjected to horizontal short-cycle loading test and four-point bending test.The vertical loading test and four-point bending test were used to collect bending load,bending displacement,and bending strain.Two short cycle loading tests were used to collect strain displacement to compare the maximum load,maximum displacement,bending stiffness,and short-period displacement resistance of the two kinds of bone plates. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)There were no significant differences in all indexes between the three-dimensional reconstruction group and the femoral specimen group(P>0.05).Individual customized anatomical plate system was designed based on the measurement results combined with digital software.(2)In the vertical loading test,the maximum load was higher(P=0.015),the maximum bending displacement was smaller(P=0.014),and the bending stiffness was higher(P=0.005)in the customized anatomical plate system group compared with the claw plate group.(3)In the four-point bending test,the maximum load was higher(P=0.023),the bending stiffness was higher(P=0.005),and the maximum bending displacement was not significant(P=0.216>0.05)in the customized anatomical plate system group compared with the claw plate group.(4)In the vertical short-cycle loading test,the average level of bending displacement in the customized anatomical plate system group(0.23±0.10 mm)was significantly lower than that in the claw plate group(0.44±0.02 mm)(P<0.05).(5)There was no significant difference in the average level of bending displacement between the two groups in the horizontal short cycle loading test(P>0.05).(6)It is concluded that the customized anatomical plate system has personalized anatomical characteristics,and the fixation of Vancouver BI periprosthetic femoral fracture is more stable,which has certain significance for clinical treatment.

Highly effective oral antiviral therapy with low drug resistance can strongly inhibit HBV replication； however， some patients may still have low-level viremia （LLV） after receiving entecavir， tenofovir disoproxil fumarate， tenofovir alafenamide， or tenofovir amibufenamide for 48 weeks or more. Multiple studies in China and globally show that LLV after antiviral therapy is closely associated with the progression of chronic hepatitis B liver fibrosis， the risk of decompensated liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma， and the reduction in long-term survival rate. Therefore， this article reviews the development， risk factors， and clinical harm of LLV after first-line treatment with nucleos（t）ide analogues， as well as different treatment regimens， in order to provide a reference for the treatment of LLV in chronic hepatitis B patients in the future.

Hepatitis D is a global public health issue, and the infection rate and genotype of HDV infection vary greatly across different regions. The overlapping infection of hepatitis D virus (HDV) in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection can accelerate disease progression, but hepatitis D has not been taken seriously to a large extent. Xinjiang in China is an area with a high incidence rate of hepatitis B, but there is a lack of research on hepatitis D. This article discusses the prevalence of HDV infection in Xinjiang and briefly reviews the prevalence rate of HDV infection in Xinjiang, the molecular epidemiology of HDV among different ethnic groups, and the current status of HDV infection in neighboring countries, so as to provide a reference for the conduct of molecular epidemiological research on HDV and disease prevention and control in Xinjiang.

Objective To study mechanical properties of the novel micro-movement elastic implant of distal tibiofibular syndesmosis in dorsiflexion position.Methods A combination of simulation and experiment was used. The normal ankle dorsiflexion model, the bone nail repaired model and the micro-movement elastic implant repaired model were established by using Mimics and CT data. Besides, ANSYS Workbench was used for finite element analysis. Mechanical experiments on lower limb specimens were conducted on Instron E10000 mechanical test instrument, and five sets of experimental data were measured and analyzed.Results Mechanical properties of the micro-movement elastic implant repaired model were closer to those of the normal ankle dorsiflexion model, but stress of the micro-movement elastic implant repaired mode was greater than that of the bone nail repaired model. The results of two-sample heteroscedasticity t test indicated that there was no significant difference in resistance torque between the micro-movement elastic implant repaired model and the normal ankle dorsiflexion model.Conclusions For dorsiflexion position, repairing mechanical properties of the novel micro-movement elastic implant are much better than those of the bone nail, and there is still room for optimizing the micro-movement elastic implant.

Objective To study the effect of interlocking intramedullary nail on fixing transverse olecranon fracture. Methods Nine pairs of fresh ulna specimens were collected and the transverse fracture model of olecranon was established. Kirschner wire tension band and interlocking intramedullary nail were used to repair the fracture. Cyclic dynamic tension loads with amplitude of 25 N, mean value of 45 N and frequency of 05 Hz were applied to the triceps tendon under simulated elbow flexion conditions of 30°, 45° and 60°, respectively. The fracture displacements of specimens within 300 cycles were recorded in three groups. ResultsAt 30° flexion angle, the fracture displacement of interlocking intramedullary nail group and Kirschner wire tension band group was (1.831±0.333) mm and (3.723±2.390) mm, respectively. At 45° flexion angle, the fracture displacement of interlocking intramedullary nail group and Kirschner wire tension band group was (1.167±0.374) mm and (2.455±0.609) mm, respectively. At 60° flexion angle, the fracture displacement of interlocking intramedullary nail group and Kirschner wire tension band group was (1.407±0.342) mm and (3.112±1.025) mm, respectively. The fracture displacement of interlocking intramedullary nail was smaller. Conclusions The mechanical properties of interlocking intramedullary nail are better than those of Kirschner wire tension band, and the interlocking intramedullary nail is more stable and firmer for fixing transverse olecranon fracture. Moreover, the interlocking intramedullary nail is installed with the operating tool, thus the operation is more accurate and faster, and the operation efficiency is greatly improved.

Objective:To determine the mechanical properties of our self-designed novel cross-locking intramedullary nails and the impact of number of conical locking nails on the fixation through a finite element analysis and specimen experiments.Methods:Mimics 19.0 and SolidWorks 2014 were used to create transverse fracture models of the olecranon which were subjected to fixation with respectively K-wire tension band (KTB) and our self-designed novel cross-locking intramedullary nails (NIN). The strengths of KTB and NIN fixation were analyzed by Ansys. Fifteen human ulna specimens were used to construct a transverse fracture model of the olecranon; an Instron E10000 mechanical testing machine was used to determine mechanical properties in fixation respectively with KTB, one NIN (NIN-1) and 3 NINs (NIN-3).Results:In the finite element analysis, in simulation of the forearm flexed at 45° under a 100 N load, the deformation of the fracture surface of the olecranon in fixation with KTB, NIN-1 and NIN-3 was respectively 0.131 mm, 0.123 mm and 0.121 mm. In the specimen experiments, in simulation of the forearm flexed at 45°, the maximum failure loads for fixation with KTB, NIN-1 and NIN-3 were (313.38±27.68) N, (528.56±53.58) N and (871.04±94.95) N, respectively, showing significant differences among the 3 groups ( P<0.05). The maximum failure load for NIN-3 fixation was significantly greater than that for KTB or NIN-1 fixation, and the maximum failure load for NIN-1 fixation was significantly greater than that for KTB fixation ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with KTB fixation, NIN fixation is more convenient in operation and has better mechanical properties. NIN-3 fixation has the best mechanical properties.

Objective To analyze factors that affect axial mechanical performance of the posterior pedicle fixation system. Methods The mechanical model for axial mechanical properties of the posterior pedicle fixation system was established to perform mechanical analysis. By referring to the Standard YY/T 0961-2014, tests on axial ejection force and axial clamping torque of JHL-I multi-axis components, JHL-I single-axis components, JHL-V multi-axis components and JHL-V single-axis components were performed by using Instron E3000 and Instron E10000 mechanical testing machines. Results The ejection rigidity of the single-axis component of vertebral nail system was significantly higher than that of the multi-axis component of vertebral nail system; the torsion rigidity of JHL-V was higher than that of JHL-I. The type and size of the locking bolt as well as its locking torque were the main factors affecting axial ejection force of the posterior spinal pedicle fixation system; the size of the locking bolt and the diameter of the connection rod were the main factors affecting axial clamping torque of the system; axial mechanical properties of the system could be improved by increasing the diameter of the connecting rod, the coefficient of friction between each connecting element, and the pitch diameter of the locking bolt. Conclusions The research findings provide references for optimizing and improving axial mechanical properties of the posterior pedicle fixation system.

Objective To test the validity for mechanical equation of the TC4 self-tapping bone screw and analyze the influence of bone screw parameters on its mechanical properties. Methods In order to derive the equation of self-tapping and pull-out for bone screw, the physical model of bone screw-polyurethane foam block was built. By reference of ASTMF543-07 standard specification and test method for metallic medical bone screw, the mechanical verification tests of selected conical head shallow thread locking bone screw (HAZ) and conical head deep thread locking bone screw (HBZ) with different diameters were performed on Instron E3000 mechanical testing machine, and the data of self-tapping force, self-tapping torque and pull-out force from 5 groups of bone screws were tested respectively. Results The calculated and measured values were basically the same, except for a few points with large individual errors. The average error of the two values was 11.02%, so the theoretical calculation formula was highly credible. The bone screw with a larger diameter or a higher tooth height would require greater self-tapping force and pull-out force. Conclusions The research results provide the calculation basis for mechanical properties of bone screw and the research direction for optimization and improvement of bone screw in future.

Nucleos(t)ide analogues (NAs), which are widely used as the first-line anti-hepatitis B virus (HBV) drugs in clinical practice, can effectively inhibit the replication of HBV DNA, significantly slow down disease progression in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients, and reduce the development of end-stage liver diseases such as liver failure and liver cancer. However, for some CHB patients receiving first-line NAs for 48 weeks or longer, serum HBV DNA is still persistently or intermittently higher than the lower detection of limit of sensitive nucleic acid detection reagents. After discussion by the authors, low-level viremia (LLV) is defined as follows: persistent LLV refers to the condition in which CHB patients, who receive entecavir, tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, or tenofovir alafenamide fumarate for ≥48 weeks, test positive for HBV DNA by two consecutive detections with sensitive quantitative PCR, with an interval of 3-6 months, but have an HBV DNA level of ＜2000 IU/ml; intermittent LLV refers to the condition in which patients test positive for HBV DNA intermittently by at least three consecutive detections with sensitive quantitative PCR, with an interval of 3-6 months, but have an HBV DNA level of ＜2000 IU/ml. For the diagnosis of LLV, the issues of poor compliance and drug-resistant mutations should be excluded. LLV might be associated with the increased risk of progression to liver fibrosis or hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with liver cirrhosis under NA treatment, but there are still controversies over whether the original treatment regimen with NAs should be changed after the onset of LLV. This article summarizes the incidence rate of LLV under NA treatment and the influence of LLV on prognosis and analyzes the possible mechanisms of the osnet of LLV, so as to provide a reference for the management of LLV in patients treated with NAs.

Objective@#To evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous thrombolysis with recombinant tissue-plasminogen activator (rt-PA) in elderly patients with early-stage mild ischemic stroke (IS).@*Methods@#This was a prospective, open-label, controlled study.Ninety-four elderly patients with mild IS admitted to our hospital from January 2014 to December 2017 were randomized into a thrombolysis arm (TA, n=46) and a control arm (CA, n=48). The short-term endpoints were the National Institutes of Health stroke scale (NIHSS) scores on 3rd, 7th, 14thday after admission and the secondary endpoints were the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score and the morbidity of recurrence IS within 90 days.Safety was evaluated by the incidence of intracranial hemorrhage (IH) and early neurological deterioration (END) during hospitalization.@*Results@#The baseline NIHSS scores of patients in the TA and CA groups were similar [(4.1±0.7) vs.(4.1±0.7)]. However, there were significant differences in the NIHSS score on 3rd [(3.4±1.2) vs.(4.2±1.4)], 7th[(3.0±1.8) vs.(4.1±1.6)] and 14thday [(2.5±2.0) vs.(3.4±1.6)], respectively, between the TA group and the CA group.Furthermore, the TA group was associated with a significantly higher proportion of patients with good prognosis (mRS, 0-2), compared with the CA group (71.7% vs.35.4%, P<0.01). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that patients with baseline NIHSS>3 could benefit from thrombolytic therapy.There were 1 case of symptomatic IH and 1 case of progressive stroke in the TA group, and 1 case of IH and 2 cases of progressive stroke in the control group.There were no significant differences in the rate of either END or IH between the two groups (P>0.05). Two patients in the TA group and three patients in the control group had recurrent IS within 90 days and the recurrence rate of IS was also similar within 90 days (P>0.05).@*Conclusions@#Intravenous thrombolytic therapy with rt-PA can improve the prognosis of elderly patients with mild stroke without increased risk of END, IH, or recurrence of IS.

Objective To analyze the value of vaginal microecological detection in evaluating therapeutic effect of simple vulvovaginal candidiasis(VVC), and explore microecological factors which can affect the cure rate of simple VVC.Methods 75 patients with simple VVC in Tianjin Medical University General Hospital from January 2016 to June 2017 were enrolled.Vaginal secretion was collected and applied for vaginal microecological detection.The patients were treated with clotrimazole based monotherapy later. The relationship between vaginal microecological characters and therapeutic effects was analyzed.Results PH values,leukocyte counts,flora density,flora diversity,small bacilli and cocci counts had no influence on therapeutic effects(P>0.05).The cure rate of patients with lactobacillary gradesⅠ-Ⅱa was higher than that with lactobacillary gradesⅡb-Ⅲ(83.33% vs 53.33%,P=0.033), while lower with lactobacilli≤22.8/hpf than that with lactobacilli >22.8/hpf(59.26% vs 87.50%,P=0.007), which indicate that lactobacilli counts was the main factor that affects therapeutic effects.Conclusions Vaginal microecological detection plays an important role in predicting the therapeutic effect of simple VVC.For the patients with lower lactobacillus counts,the follow-up after treatment should be strengthened.(Chin J Lab Med,2018, 41:292-295)

Objective To investigate and analyze the surgical site infection rate,clinical characteristics,risk factors and pathogens in patients after type Ⅰ incision orthopedic foot and ankle surgery,which may provide a basis for preventing surgical site infection in foot and ankle surgery.Methods Patients undergoing type Ⅰ incision orthopedic foot and ankle surgery from Jun.2011 to Jun.2015 were investigated retrospectively.Clinical data of cases with surgical site infection were collected and analyzed.Incidence of surgical site infection,clinical features,risk factors and pathogen distribution were studied.Results Seven hundred and sixty-one patients were undergoing type Ⅰ incision orthopedic foot and ankle surgery,surgical site infection occurred in 42 patients with an infection rate of 5.5％.In terms of age,gender,anesthesia,smoking,drinking,rheumatoid arthritis,gout,number of incisions and recovery after open injuries,no significant difference of surgical site infection rate were found.Diabetes mellitus complicated with peripheral neuropathy increased the risk of surgical site infection compared with nondiabetic patients.Patients who had an operative time more than 3 hours had a greater risk of surgical site infection compared with those less than 1 hours.The presence of intra-operative implants increases the risk of surgical site infection compared with patients with external fixations or without implants.Conclusions Surgical site infection is a common complication for the patients after type Ⅰ incision orthopedic foot and ankle surgery.Diabetes mellitus complicated with peripheral neuropathy,long operation time and intra-operative implants may be the high risk factors for surgical site infection.

Objective To further clarify the pathogenesis of different types of Kaposi′s sarcoma (KS) by measuring the protein expressions of caspase-3 and E-cad in tumor tissues of Xinjiang Uygur patients with acqured immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-Kaposi′s sarcoma (KS) and classical KS.Methods From July 2011 to October 2014, 38 patients with KS at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University and Urumqi Infectious Disease Hospital were enrolled, among whom 28 were male and 10 were female, and all of them were uygur.Immunohistochemical and Western blot methods were used to detect the expressions of caspase-3 and E-cad proteins in 22 cases of AIDS-KS patients and 16 cases of classic KS.The quantitative data of normal distribution were analyzed by t test, while count data were compared with χ2 test with R × C table.Results KS lesions in patients with classic KS were confined to the skin, without mucosal, lymph node or visceral involvement.Lesions in AIDS-KS patients were not only confined to the skin and superficial lymph nodes, but also oral mucosa involved in 12 cases and internal organs involved in 7 cases.Liver and lung involvement was more common.The CD4+T lymphocyte count in patients with AIDS-KS was (200.8±166)/μL.All 15 AIDS cases with CD4+ T cell count less than 200/μL developed opportunistic infections.CD4+ T lymphocyte count of patients with classic KS was (562.52±222.66)/μL and the 16 patients with CD4+T lymphocyte count greater than 350/μL had no opportunistic infections.The results of immunohistochemistry showed that the positive expression rate of caspase-3 protein in KS tissues in patients with AIDS-KS was 68.2%, in patients with classic KS was 100.0%, with significant difference between two groups (χ2=7.37, P=0.01).The positive expression rate of E-cad protein in KS tissues in patients with AIDS-KS was 72.7%, in patients with classic KS was 100.0%, with significant difference between two groups (χ2=5.18, P=0.03).Western blotting showed that the gray value of caspase-3 in the KS tissue of patients with AIDS-KS was 0.55±0.36, and that in patients with classic KS was 0.86±0.56, with significant difference between two groups (t=-2.070, P<0.05).The gray value of E-cad in the KS tissue of patients with AIDS-KS was 0.54±0.41, and that in patients with classic KS was 0.85±0.45, with significant difference between two groups (t=-2.060,P<0.05).Conclusions There are differences in the protein expressions of caspase-3 and E-cad in tumor tissues of patients with AIDS-KS and classical KS in Xinjiang Uygur patients with Kaposi's sarcoma, which may correlate with a faster progression and a higher mortality rate for AIDS-KS.
