sCD14、Ang2、CRP与急诊创伤骨折伴多发伤患者病情转归关系探究

目的 探讨可溶性白细胞分化抗原14（soluble cluster of differentiation antigen 14,sCD14）、血管生成素2（angiopoietin 2,Ang2）、C反应蛋白（C-reactive protein,CRP）与急诊创伤骨折伴多发伤患者病情转归的关系及意义。 方法 选取创伤骨折伴多发伤患者324例,根据患者出院时病情转归情况分为良好组（275例）、不良组（49例）,比较2组一般资料、sCD14、Ang2、CRP水平,应用Pearson分析sCD14、Ang2、CRP与损伤严重程度评分（injury severity score,ISS）关系,采用Cox回归分析急诊创伤骨折伴多发伤患者病情转归的相关影响因素,采用受试者工作特征曲线（receiver operating characteristic,ROC）分析sCD14、Ang2、CRP对病情转归预测价值。 结果 不良组ISS评分高于良好组（P＜0.05）;不良组sCD14、Ang2、CRP高于良好组（P＜0.05）;sCD14（r=0.785）、Ang2（r=0.778）、CRP（r=0.842）与ISS评分呈正相关（P＜0.05）;sCD14、Ang2、CRP均是预后相关独立危险因素（P＜0.05）;sCD14、Ang2、CRP预测病情转归的ROC下面积（area under the curve,AUC）依次为0.813、0.757、0.749;挑选出预测敏感度最高（sCD14）、特异度最高（Ang2）的两个指标进行sCD14+Ang2的联合ROC分析显示,两者联合预测病情转归的AUC为0.935,大于任一单一指标（P＜0.05）。 结论 sCD14、Ang2、CRP与急诊创伤骨折伴多发伤患者病情严重程度及病情转归有关,均可作为预测病情转归的标志物,但联合检测sCD14、Ang2能提高预测可靠性,为临床诊疗及护理提供更准确的参考信息。

人工肱骨头置换与肱骨近端锁定钢板治疗老年复杂肱骨近端骨折的近期临床疗效分析

[摘要] 目的 对比分析人工肱骨头置换术和肱骨近端锁定钢板治疗老年复杂肱骨近端骨折的近期疗效。方法 回顾性分析本院骨科2012年1月~2014年6月采用人工肱骨头置换术和肱骨近端锁定钢板治疗的老年（年龄>65岁）NeerⅢ、Ⅳ部分肱骨近端骨折患者54例，人工肱骨头置换治疗（置换组）30例，肱骨近端锁定钢板内固定治疗（内固定组）24例。比较分析两组手术时间、术中出血量、随访Neer评分及Constant-Murley评分来评定两组临床疗效。结果 两组随访时间相仿，平均随访时间为19.5个月（12~36个月）。内固定组手术时间（101±13）分钟，术中出血量（237.9±32.4）mL，Neer评分（82.5±3.2），Constant-Murley评分（71.7±5.0）；置换组手术时间（98±11）分钟，术中出血量（246.0±39.8）mL，Neer评分（82.9±4.5），Constant-Murley评分（73.5±5.0）。两组手术时间、术中出血量、随访Neer及Constant-Murley评分比较差异均无统计学意义（P＞0.05）。内固定组有1例出现肩关节半脱位，肱骨头置换组有2例出现肩关节半脱位，通过三角巾悬吊后关节脱位均得到纠正。有1例四部分骨折患者，行内固定术后出现内固定松动、肱骨头坏死，改行人工肱骨头置换术。结论 人工肱骨头置换术和肱骨近端锁定钢板治疗老年肱骨近端复杂骨折的近期临床疗效相似，对不可修复的肱骨近端骨折宜行肱骨头置换术。     

股骨粗隆间骨折采用改良L形钢板内固定的生物力学原理与临床应用

作者自1994年始采用自行设计L形钢板内固定治疗不稳定股骨粗隆间骨折60例，平均随访25个月，X线片显示骨折愈合时间6～13周，平均8．9周，伤肢功能在3个月内基本恢复正常，无骨折延迟愈合及髋内翻现象。为论证改良L形钢板的优点，本文采用8具新鲜尸股骨沿着它的外侧、内侧骨皮质粘贴6个应变片，观察股骨近端应变和位移分布，以检验改良L形钢板固定粗隆间骨折的效果。在实验前后将股骨粗隆造成二部分或四部分骨折。利用实验结果给制成应变和位移图，并与鹅头打固定组相比较。在载荷加至1800N时比较两种内固定器械的生物力学性能。结果表明，在治疗不稳定粗隆间骨折中，L形钢板比鹅头钉更具有生物力学的优势。     

Motor unit recruitment and rate coding in response to fatiguing shoulder abductions and subsequent recovery

The purpose of the present study was to investigate motor unit (MU) recruitment and firing rate, and the MU action potential (MUAP) characteristics of the human supraspinatus muscle during prolonged static contraction and subsequent recovery. Eight female subjects sustained a 30° shoulder abduction, requiring 11–12% of maximal voluntary contraction (MVC), for 30 min. At 10 and 30 min into the recovery period, the shoulder abduction was repeated for 1 min. The rating of perceived exertion for the shoulder region increased to “close to exhaustion” during the prolonged contraction, and the surface electromyography (EMG) recorded from the deltoid and trapezius muscles showed signs of local muscle fatigue. From the supraspinatus muscle, a total of 23,830 MU firings from 265 MUs were identified using needle electrodes. Of the identified MUs, 95% were continuously active during the 8-s recordings, indicating a low degree of MU rotation. The mean (range) MU firing rate was 11.2 (5.7–14.5) Hz, indicating the relative force contribution of individual MUs to be larger than the overall mean shoulder muscle load. The average MU firing rate remained stable throughout the prolonged abduction, although firing rate variability increased in response to fatigue. The average concentric MUAP amplitude increased by 38% from the beginning (0–6 min) to the end (24–29 min) of the contraction period, indicating recruitment of larger MUs in response to fatigue. In contrast, after 10 min of recovery the average MU amplitude was smaller than seen initially in the prolonged contraction, but not different after 30 min, while the MU firing rate was higher during both tests. In conclusion, MU recruitment plays a significant role during fatigue, whereas rate coding has a major priority during recovery. Furthermore, a low degree of MU rotation in combination with a high relative load at the MU level may imply a risk of overloading certain MUs during prolonged contractions.

External fixation of unstable pelvic ring fractures: comparative rigidity of some current frame configurations

The effectiveness of external fixation in the stabilisation of pelvic ring fractures was studied in a laboratory cadaveric series. Shearing displacements occurring at sacroiliac joint and symphysis pubis dislocation sites, due to simplified longitudinal loading of the sacrum in an Instron unit, were monitored using variable-impedence transducers. The rigidity of fixation was compared for the Slätis and the Bonnel single anterior frames, for coupled and uncoupled double anterior frames, and for combined anterior-plus-posterior fixation achieved with separate transfixation pin clusters, with through-and-through pin clusters, or with a posterior screw plate. The data showed that the use of posterior fixation provided greatly enhanced stabilisation compared to that achieved with anterior fixation alone. The complex double anterior frames performed only slightly better than did the simpler single anterior frames. In no case, however, was it possible to recover rigidity levels approaching those of the intact pelvis. The results suggest that the transfixation pin arrangement is the most important determinant of pelvic fixation stability, and that further investigation of posterior screw-plate fixation is warranted.     

Are there age induced morphologic variations of the superior glenoid labrum? About 100 shoulder arthroscopies

Different anterosuperior aspects of the glenoid labrum have already been described and are thought to be normal anatomical variations. The goals of this study were first to characterize these anterosuperior labral morphologies and then to analyze their variations in function of the patients’ age. One hundred shoulder arthroscopies were recorded to study the macroscopic characteristics of the anterosuperior labrum of the glenohumeral joint and its relationships with the proximal insertion of the tendon of the long head of the biceps. Then, patients were divided into two groups in function of their age (below and over 30 years old). Morphological modifications of the labrum were found in function of the age of the patient with an increase of the nonpathologic “mobile labrum” type after 30 years (P=0.0423). Therefore a mobile and loosely attached superior labrum should not always be considered as abnormal, especially in case of patient older than 30 years.
