目的评估以功能性纤维蛋白原(功纤杯)检测结果为标准的血栓弹力图(TEG)血小板聚集功能检测中在巴曲酶杯(A杯)内加入血小板GPⅡb/Ⅲa受体抑制剂(A辅剂)对检测结果的影响。方法从2019年12月~2020年5月在本院神经内科、心内科、综合科和康复科就诊、做TEG血小板聚集功能检测的患者中收集100(人)份全血标本,根据TEG测得的A杯血块强度(MA)值(mm)将血标本分为MA<25组(n=50)和MA≥25组(n=50),2组再各细分为A杯组(各自为n=50)、A辅剂组(在A杯中加入A辅剂)(各自为n=50)、功纤杯组(各自为n=50)3个亚组,各亚组均检测2次;比较各亚组间的血小板二磷酸腺苷(ADP)与花生四烯酸(AA)途径抑制率的线性相关(R2)、血小板抑制率的差异,以及3个亚组间ADP与AA途径药物疗效判读结果的一致性。结果 1)MA<25 mm组,血小板ADP及AA途径抑制率(%)A杯、A辅剂与功纤杯3个亚组分别为32.00±17.44 vs 30.19±17.44 vs 30.07±16.18,24.3±33.53 vs 22.53±30.9 vs 22.37±31.2(均为R2>0.975);2)MA≥25 mm组,血小板ADP及AA途径抑制率(%)A杯、A辅剂与功纤杯3个亚组分别为34.34±33.59 vs 18.45±24.42 vs 18.01±24.33,23.19±39.33 vs 8.48±21.75 vs 8.31±21.7(其中A杯组与A辅剂组比较均为R2<0.8,A辅剂组与功纤杯组均为R2>0.975);3)以功纤杯组检测结果为标准,A杯组与A辅剂组间ADP和AA途径药物疗效判读正确率分别为82%(41/50)vs 100%(50/50)、84%(42/50)vs 100%(50/50)(P<0.05),而A辅剂组与功纤杯组之间2种途径药物疗效判读结果一致(P>0.05)。结论在TEG的血小板聚集功能检测中A杯内添加A辅剂可以有效抑制A杯中非特异激活的血小板,真实反映纤维蛋白原的功能,故提高了其血小板抑制率检测结果的准确性。     

Blood transfusions and hip fracture mortality - A retrospective cohort study

BackgroundHip fractures are associated with serious morbidity and mortality. Low haemoglobin at presentation has been shown to be associated with increased mortality in hip fracture patients. This comorbid patient group commonly receives packed red cell blood transfusions during their hospital admission, the impact of which is less clear.Aims and objectivesWe aim to assess the rate, appropriateness and impact of blood transfusions on one-year mortality in hip fracture patients. We also aim to assess the impact of patients taking anticoagulant medications at presentation on the rates of blood transfusions in this patient group.MethodsA retrospective cohort study of 324 consecutive hip fracture patients. Data was collected from the national hip fracture database, electronic patient records and PACS.Results75 patients received a blood transfusion. Receiving a blood transfusion increased absolute risk of one-year mortality by 2.466 (p < 0.05). Adjusted for age, sex, comorbidities, residence prior to admission and time from presentation to surgery increased the risk of one-year mortality was 2.790 (p < 0.05).28% of patients who went on to receive a transfusion had a haemoglobin of less than 100 g/L at presentation. 94.6% of transfused patients had a pre-transfusion haemoglobin of less than 90 g/L. There was no increased risk of requiring a blood transfusion if anticoagulant medication was being taken at presentation.ConclusionReceiving a blood transfusion during an admission for hip fracture carried an increased risk of one-year mortality of almost two and a half times. With appropriate preoperative optimisation, taking an anticoagulant medication at presentation did not increase the risk of requiring a transfusion. Most blood transfusions were administered appropriately using thresholds. Just over a quarter of patients who received a transfusion had an admission haemoglobin of less than 100 g/L, showing it as a poor predictor of blood transfusion requirement during admission.     

A meta-analysis of the secondary fractures for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures after percutaneous vertebroplasty

To identify the risk factors of the secondary fractures for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) after percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP).We conducted a search of relevant articles using Cochrane Library, PubMed, Medline, Science Direct, Embase, the Web of Science and other databases. The time range we retrieved from establishment of the electronic database to November 2017. Gray studies were found in the references of included literature reports. STATA version 11.0 (Stata Corporation, College Station, Texas) was used to analyze the pooled data.Fourteen studies involving 1910 patients, 395 of whom had fracture secondary to the surgery were included in this meta-analysis. The result of meta-analyses showed the risk factors of the secondary fractures for OVCFs after PVP was related to bone mineral density (BMD) [95%CI (−0.650, −0.164), SMD=−0.407, P=.001], cement leakage ((RR=0.596, 95%CI (0.444,0.798), P = .001)), and kyphosis after primary operation ((SMD=0.741, 95%CI (0.449,1.032), P = .000)), but not to gender, age, body mass index, cement volume, thoracolumbar spine, and cement injection approaches.Bone mineral density, cement leakage, and kyphosis after primary operation are the risk factors closely correlative to the secondary fracture after PVP. There have not been enough evidences to support the association between the secondary fracture and gender, age, body mass index, cement volume, thoracolumbar spine, and cement injection approaches.     

胫骨平台内翻角在预测单纯膝内侧间室骨关节炎患者股骨后髁角中应用的可行性

目的 探讨测量胫骨平台内翻角(PTA)预测单纯膝内侧间室骨关节炎患者股骨后髁角(PCA)的可行性。方法 回顾性研究。纳入2018年1月—2019年12月哈尔滨医科大学附属第一医院拟行膝关节置换手术的72例单侧单纯膝内侧间室骨关节炎患者的临床资料,其中男7例、女65例,年龄49～80(66.5±14.35)岁,身高155～180(164.3±11.23)cm。72例患者患侧膝均呈内翻畸形,内翻角为10.6°±1.36°。收集患者术前负重位下肢全长X线片与膝关节CT影像资料,在X线片以及冠状位CT图片上测量患者双侧膝关节的PTA、PCA,统计分析患侧、健侧的PTA、PCA差异,采用Pearson相关分析法分别分析患侧、健侧的PTA与PCA之间的相关性。结果 72例患者健侧PTA、PCA值分别为3.23°±0.79°、4.64°±1.13°,患侧PTA、PCA值分别为8.39°±1.99°、4.71°±1.15°。健侧PTA明显小于患侧,差异有统计学意义(t=18.916, P＜0.01),而健侧与患侧PCA间差异无统计学意义(P＞0.05)。Pearson相关分析结果显示,患侧、健侧PTA和PCA均无相关性(r_健侧=0.144、r_患侧=0.109, P值均＞0.05)。结论 对于单纯膝内侧间室骨关节炎患者,健侧与患侧的PCA值比较无明显差异,而PTA值则随内侧间室磨损程度的加重而增大,PCA与PTA之间并不存在明显的相关性。术前测量PTA用于预测PCA的方法不可行,     

Clinical outcomes of open treatment of old condylar head fractures in adults

The aim of this study was to classify the clinical feasibility and outcomes of open reduction treatment of old condylar head fractures (CHFs).This was a retrospective case series study of patients with old CHFs that were treated with open reduction and internal fixation, with anatomic reduction and sutured fixation of the articular disc. Preoperative and postoperative examinations were recorded and analyzed, including temporomandibular joint (TMJ) symptoms, occlusion, maximum interincisal opening (MIO), and mandibular deviation. Computed tomography (CT) was used to assess condylar morphology and position.Eleven patients with old CHFs were included (nine unilateral and two bilateral). The mean period from condylar fracture to operation was 8.9 months (ranging from 6 to 14 months). The mean follow-up period after surgery was 16.1 months (ranging from 12 to 22 months). At the end of follow-up period, no malocclusion was found, and the MIO had expanded considerably to 37.4 ± 3.8 mm. Postoperative CT showed that all fragments were properly reduced and the condyles were in the normal position. All patients showed apparently improved TMJ function, occlusion, and facial appearance.Our results showed that open reduction treatment could be an effective method for the treatment of old CHFs.     

Evaluation of the efficacy of salmon calcitonin nasal spray on bone healing following open reduction and internal fixation of mandibular fractures — A randomized controlled trial

The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy of calcitonin spray on bone healing following open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) of mandibular fractures. Fourteen patients were subdivided into a study group and a control group. A standardized surgical protocol for ORIF was followed. Postoperatively, salmon calcitonin nasal spray was administered to only the study group. The outcome parameters assessed were serum osteocalcin, pain, and radiographic bone healing. Serum osteocalcin was assessed pre- and postoperatively. Postoperative pain was documented using a visual analogue scale (VAS) on the 7th, 14th, 23rd, and 30th days. An orthopantomogram was used to score fracture healing at four time intervals, as follows: 1 — absence of callus; 2 — presence of minimal callus; 3 — considerable callus; and 4 — complete fusion of fracture. Pain scores were lower for the study group, with no pain from the fifth day, while the control group produced a mean score for day 5 of 2.43 ± 0.98 (p = 0.001). Mean postoperative serum osteocalcin levels were higher for the study group (67.82 ± 8.89) compared with the control group (57.69 ± 6.22; p = 0.029). Bone healing at 12 weeks postoperatively was level 4 for 28.6% of patients in the study group and level 3 for 71.4%. In comparison, 85.7% in the control group demonstrated level 3 healing, while 14.3% remained at level 2 (p = 0.462). Within the limitations of the study, it can be concluded that intranasal salmon calcitonin spray reduces postoperative pain and facilitates fracture healing, although its economic efficiency is still to be proven.     

Fixation of subcondylar fractures of the mandible: a randomized clinical trial comparing one trapezoidal plate with two miniplates

Subcondylar fracture of the mandible accounts for 25–35% of all mandibular fractures. In the past, most subcondylar fractures were managed non-surgically. The traditional method of fixation for subcondylar fractures uses two miniplates; however some bench studies have reported that trapezoidal plates are superior. The aim of this study was to compare the outcomes of subcondylar fractures fixed either with two non-parallel straight miniplates or with one trapezoidal plate. A randomized clinical trial was designed and implemented. Fifty-two consecutive patients with subcondylar fractures were recruited. All patients underwent surgery via a retromandibular approach. The time taken for fixation of the plate after fracture reduction and postoperative outcomes and complications were compared between the groups. The trapezoidal plates were superior in terms of ease of adaptation and time taken for fixation (P =  0.0001). Plate fracture was observed only in the two miniplates group, in four (16%) patients. Outcomes were similar in the two groups in terms of occlusion, mouth opening, protrusion, and lateral excursion. In conclusion, both systems – two miniplates and the trapezoidal plate – provide functionally stable fixation. The outcome was significantly better for the trapezoidal plate than for two miniplates regarding the time taken for insertion and ease of adaptation, but not for other parameters.
