改良Richard钉在髋部骨折中的应用

髋部骨折是常见骨折之一，且逐年增多。多发生于老年人，并发症多，死亡率高。应用Ｒｉｃｈａｒｄ钉治疗是目前最佳方法之一。我们将Ｒｉｃｈａｒｄ钉进行了改进，一是增加了松质骨螺钉粗螺纹长度；二是根据不同类型的粗隆下骨折，增加了套筒钢板的长度。经５２例粗隆间骨折和２１例粗隆下骨折患者的临床应用，无死亡，无髋内翻及机械装置并发症的发生。术后病人无需外固定，可早期床上及下地活动。经随访８～３８个月，平均随访时间１５．６个月，骨折全部愈合。我们认为改良Ｒｉｃｈａｒｄ钉是治疗髋部粗隆间和粗隆下骨折更为理想的内固定装置。

Association between Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures and Age,Bone Mineral Density,and European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions in Korean Postmenopausal Women: A Nationwide Cross-sectional Observational Study

BackgroudThe purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) in Korean postmenopausal women and the association between OVCFs and clinical factors such as age, bone mineral density (BMD), and quality of life.MethodsAccording to the population distribution in four regions in Korea, 1,281 postmenopausal female patients were recruited from nationwide orthopedic outpatient clinics. Radiologic, asymptomatic, and within 3 months of OVCF groups were analyzed based on age, fracture location, and prevalence according to BMD. In addition, BMD, T-score, body mass index, and European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions (EQ-5D) were investigated in the three groups, and the differences between groups were compared and analyzed.ResultsThe prevalence of radiologic OVCFs at the T11–L1 was 3.7 times higher in the 70s group (44.0%) than in the 50s group (11.9%). Femur and total hip BMD were significantly lower in patients with thoracolumbar junction fractures than in patients with L2–5 fractures, whereas no difference was observed in lumbar spine BMD. Of the three OVCF groups, the within 3 months of OVCF group had the lowest lumbar spine T-score of −2.445. The asymptomatic OVCF group also showed significantly lower lumbar spine T-score than did the group without radiologic OVCFs (p < 0.001). The EQ-5D showed a significant decrease in the radiologic OVCF group (p < 0.001) and within 3 months of OVCF group (p < 0.001).ConclusionsThe prevalence of OVCFs in the thoracolumbar junction rapidly increases with old age and low BMD in Korean postmenopausal women. Femur and total hip BMD are more predictive of thoracolumbar junction fractures than lumbar spine BMD. Patients with radiologic OVCFs had a significantly lower quality of life than no OVCF group. Therefore, this study shows it is important to treat and prevent osteoporosis before an OVCF occurs.     

Design Characteristics for the Tissue Engineering of Cartilaginous Tissues

Tissues like the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disc and the knee meniscus are often mistakenly viewed as a tantamount to hyaline cartilage, largely due to the absence of a comprehensive understanding of the distinguishing properties of cartilaginous tissues. Because of this confusion, fibrocartilaginous tissue engineering attempts may not be based on suitable experimental designs. Fibrocartilaginous tissues are markedly different than hyaline cartilage; however, the dearth of knowledge related to their cellular and biochemical composition, as well as their biomechanical characteristics, is stunning. Hyaline articular cartilage is exclusively composed of chondrocytes that produce primarily type II collagen, whereas the TMJ disc and the knee meniscus have a mixed cell population of fibroblasts and cells similar to chondrocytes, which predominantly secrete type I collagen. Additionally, fibrocartilaginous tissues have a low glycosaminoglycan content, a low compressive modulus, and a high tensile modulus when compared to hyaline cartilage. Therefore, it is crucial for fibrocartilaginous tissue engineering attempts to be tissue-specific, utilizing the knowledge of the distinct and unique properties of these tissues. At the same time, advances and insights related to the science and engineering aspect of hyaline cartilage regeneration must be carefully considered for the in vitro engineering of fibrocartilaginous tissues.
