ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy of the anchor suture bridge technique in treating avulsion fractures at the tibial insertion point of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) in the knee joint. Methods: In this study, we reviewed 80 patients with PCL tibial avulsion fractures treated using the anchor suture bridge technique in our department from February 2010 to December 2023. Follow-ups were conducted starting at 3 months post-surgery, then every 3 months until 12 months post-surgery. Clinical and follow-up data of each patient were analyzed. The Lysholm and Hospital for Special Surgery Knee-Rating Scale (HSS) scores of knee function before surgery and at the last follow-up were compared to assess the surgical treatment outcome. Results: The 80 patients were followed up for an average of (12.16±1.08) months post-surgery. Re-examination X-rays showed that all fractures had healed, with an average healing time of (3.66±0.51) months. All patients recovered well, with primary healing of surgical incisions and no complications such as neurovascular injury, skin necrosis, incision infection, fracture displacement, or ligament laxity. Postoperative knee Lysholm and HSS scores were significantly higher than preoperative scores. At the last follow-up, the Lysholm score increased from (46.30±6.10) preoperatively to (90.85±3.27), and the HSS score increased from (45.30±5.80) to (91.15±2.66), with statistically significant differences (P<0.025). Conclusion: The anchor suture bridge technique is effective in treating avulsion fractures of the PCL tibial insertion point in the knee joint. It has a high safety profile and leads to good postoperative knee function recovery, with no serious postoperative complications, demonstrating excellent clinical efficacy.

ABSTRACT

Mechanoluminescence (ML) sensing technologies open up new opportunities for intelligent sensors, self-powered displays and wearable devices. However, the emission efficiency of ML materials reported so far still fails to meet the growing application requirements due to the insufficiently understood mechano-to-photon conversion mechanism. Herein, we propose to quantify the ability of different phases to gain or lose electrons under friction (defined as triboelectric series), and reveal that the inorganic-organic interfacial triboelectricity is a key factor in determining the ML in inorganic-organic composites. A positive correlation between the difference in triboelectric series and the ML intensity is established in a series of composites, and a 20-fold increase in ML intensity is finally obtained by selecting an appropriate inorganic-organic combination. The interfacial triboelectricity-regulated ML is further demonstrated in multi-interface systems that include an inorganic phosphor-organic matrix and organic matrix-force applicator interfaces, and again confirmed by self-oxidization and reduction of emission centers under continuous mechanical stimulus. This work not only gives direct experimental evidences for the underlying mechanism of ML, but also provides guidelines for rationally designing high-efficiency ML materials.
