ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the effectiveness of joystick technique assisted closed reduction and cannulated screw fixation in the treatment of femoral neck fracture.@*METHODS@#Seventy-four patients with fresh femoral neck fractures who met the selection criteria between April 2017 and December 2018 were selected and divided into observation group (36 cases with closed reduction assisted by joystick technique) and control group (38 cases with closed manual reduction). There was no significant difference in gender, age, fracture side, cause of injury, Garden classification, Pauwels classification, time from injury to operation, and complications (except for hypertension) between the two groups ( P>0.05). The operation time, intraoperative infusion volume, complications, and femoral neck shortening were recorded and compared between the two groups. Garden reduction index was used to evaluate the effect of fracture reduction, and score of fracture reduction (SFR) was designed and was used to evaluate the subtle reduction effect of joystick technique.@*RESULTS@#The operation was successfully completed in both groups. There was no significant difference in operation time and intraoperative infusion volume between the two groups ( P>0.05). All patients were followed up 17-38 months, with an average of 27.7 months. Two patients in the observation group received joint replacement due to failure of internal fixation during the follow-up, and the other patients had fracture healing. Within 1 week after operation, the Garden reduxtion index of the observation group was better than the control group; the SFR score of the observation group was also higher than that of the control group; the proportion of femoral neck shortening within 1 week after operation and at 1 year after operation in the observation group were lower than those in the control group. The differences of the above indexes between the two groups were significant ( P<0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#The joystick technique can improve the effectiveness of closed reduction of femoral neck fractures and reduce the incidence of femoral neck shortening. The designed SFR score can directly and objectively evaluate the reduction effect of femoral neck fracture.

ABSTRACT

Objective To determine the value of using B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and D-dimer in preliminary recognition of cardioembolic stroke patients.Methods A mutilple-center study was conducted in Foshan Hospital of traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and its affiliated hospitals from July 2015 to July 2016.In the emergency departments (EDs),emergency physicians prospectively assessed consecutive adult patients with acute cardioembolic stroke and measured plasma BNP by POCT platform on admission,then followed up.Stroke neurologists evaluated patients' functional outcome at hospital discharge and also made discharge diagnosis and stroke etiologic subtypes according to the TOAST criteria.Results In this study,290 acute ischemic stroke patients met the study criteria [mean age (68.41 ± 12.06) years;53.8% female].Of the enrolled patients,28.3% were diagnosed with LAA at discharge,17.9% with CE,42.8% with SAO,11.0% with SOE or SUE.And the mean BNP concentration was significantly higher in the CE group than that in other three subtypes (P < 0.001).After adjustment for multiple clinical predictors like gender,age,coronary artery disease,atrial fibrillation and renal function,BNP and D-dimer were associated with CE [BNP OR:1.044 (95% CI 1.025,1.064),P < 0.001;D-dimer OR:1.511(95% CI 1.020,2.238),P =0.039,respectively].Conclusion Through POCT technique in the EDs,cardioembolic stroke patients can be differentiated from other TOAST subtypes.BNP with/without D-dimer has good but different corresponding diagnostic performance in preliminary recognition of cardioembolic stroke patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective: The aim of the study is to validate whether the Recognition Of Stroke In the Emergency Room (ROSIER) scale can be used by general practitioners (GPs) in an emergency medical service (EMS) protocol to transfer stroke patients from primary care center to advanced hospital with acute stroke center. Methods: GPs prospectively performed the ROSIER scale and the Cincinnati Prehospital Stroke Scale (CPSS) on suspected stroke patients as a transfer protocol. All patients were immediately transferred to the Level-II hospital for further treatment. Results: 468 of the 512 suspected stroke patients met the inclusion criteria in this study. The ROSIER scale showed a diagnostic sensitivity of 83.13% (95% confidence intervals [CI] 79.74-86.52%) and specificity of 80.88% (95% CI 77.32- 84.44%). The CPSS showed a diagnostic sensitivity of 78.01% (95% CI 74.26-81.76%) and specificity of 70.59% (95% CI 66.46-74.72%). The Kappa statistic value of the ROSIER scale and the CPSS were 0.601 and 0.454, respectively. The area under the curve (AUC) of ROSIER scale was large than the CPSS (AUC 0.855 vs. 0.791). However, the difference was not significantly different. Conclusions: This study suggest that ROSIER and CPSS could be used in an EMS protocol to transfer stroke patients from a primary care center to an advanced hospital offering thrombolysis service

ABSTRACT

Procalcitonin (PCT) has been recognized a marker of infectious diseases for the past few years.The value of PCT is specific elevation in infectious diseases or inflammation caused by bacterial and it has an important role in the identification of bloodstream infections,bacterial and non-bacterial,rational usage of antibiotics and prediction disease prognosis.PCT is a high value diagnostic indicators.However,the PCT do not reflect a clear advantage in the diagnosis of neonatal infection.In this paper,the composition of the PCT,the source in the body of PCT,the metabolism of PCT,laboratory testing methods of PCT and its applications in neonatal infection were reviewed in order to gain a deeper understanding of the value of PCT in the neonatal diagnosis of infectious diseases.

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of Klebsiella pneumoniae infection in preterm infants. Methods Clinical data of 75 preterm infants infected with Klebsiella pneumoniae treated in BaYi Children's Hospital from February 6,2008 to February 10,2010 were retrospectively analyzed.The difference of auxiliary examination between early-onset and late-onset infection group were compared by two independent samples t test.Spearman correlation analysis and non-conditional Logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the high risk factors and the prognostic factors of Klebsiella pneumoniae infection in preterm infants. Results The incidence of Klebsiella pneumoniae infection was 2.8% (75/2721) in preterm infants,and the mortality rate was 9.3% (7/75). There were 71 cases of Klebsiella pneumoniae sepsis and 4 cases of Klebsiella pneumoniae pneumonia.Among 75 cases,63 cases were early-onset infection (onset age≤72 h) and 12 were late-onset infection (onset age>72 h).All patients presented with poor response,heart rate during quiet sleep > 160/min and low oxygen saturation.The mean corpuscular volume and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration in early-onset Klebsiella pneunoniae infection cases were higher than those in late-onset neonates [(128.87±24.60) fl vs (113.72±13.54) fl,t=-2.07,P<0.05and (38.11±2.15) pg vs (36.98±1.05) pg,t=-2.76,P<0.05].Low birth weight and caesarean section were associated with early-onset Klebsiella pneumoniae sepsis (r=0.250 and -0.240,P<0.05). The prognosis of Klebsiella pneumoniae infection was associated with hospital stay and duration of premature rupture of membranes (r=0.368 and 0.318,P<0.05). Conclusions There were no specific clinical manifestations for Klebsiella pneumoniae infection in preterm infants.Preterm infants with low birth weight,long duration of premature rupture of membranes,delivered by caesarean section and received invasive operation are likely to develop Klebsiella pneumoniae infection.
