RESUMEN
Objective To investigate whether Royal Free Hospital Nutritional Prioritizing Tool (RFH-NPT) is more suitable than Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS-2002) in nutritional risk screening for patients with liver cirrhosis, as well as the applicability of subjective global assessment (SGA) in the nutritional assessment of patients with liver cirrhosis. Methods A total of 113 patients with liver cirrhosis who were hospitalized in Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from August 2020 to June 2021 were enrolled. RFH-NPT and NRS-2002 were used for nutritional risk screening, and SGA was used for nutritional assessment. The results of these tools were compared with the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria, and sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) were calculated for the three tools. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was calculated for each screening tool, and the association between nutritional status and short-term prognosis was analyzed. The independent samples t -test or the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups, and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. The Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation of GLIM criteria with NRS2002, RFH-NPT and SGA. Results According to the GLIM criteria, 69.9% of the patients were diagnosed with malnutrition, and RFH-NPT and NRS2002 screened out that 72.6% and 51.3%, respectively, of the patients had nutritional risk, while SGA assessment showed that 57.5% of the patients had malnutrition. Compared with NRS2002, RFH-NPT had a higher degree of correlation with the GLIM criteria ( r =0.764, P < 0.001), higher sensitivity (94.9%) and NPV (87.1%), and a better predictive value (AUC=0.872, 95% confidence interval [ CI ]: 0.786-0.957). Under the GLIM criteria, SGA had good specificity (88.2%) in the diagnosis of malnutrition in patients with liver cirrhosis, with fair sensitivity (77.2%), good correlation ( r =0.607, P < 0.001), and good predictive value (AUC=0.827, 95% CI : 0.744-0.911). Based on the GLIM criteria, SGA assessment, and RFH-NPT assessment, the patients with nutritional risk or malnutrition tended to have a longer length of hospital stay ( Z= -3.301, -2.812, and -3.813, all P < 0.05) and a higher rehospitalization rate ( χ 2 =3.957, 6.922, and 6.766, all P < 0.05). Based on the GLIM criteria and NRS2002 assessment, the patients with nutritional risk or malnutrition had a significant increase in mortality rate within 3 months ( χ 2 =4.511 and 0.776, both P < 0.05). Conclusion Under the GLIM criteria, RFH-NPT is more suitable than NRS2002 for nutritional risk screening of patients with liver cirrhosis, and SGA also has good applicability in nutritional assessment of patients with liver cirrhosis. In addition, GLIM criteria, SGA, and RFH-NPT are associated with the clinical outcome of patients.
RESUMEN
Objective:To compare the accuracy of two methods in reducing leg length discrepancy(LLD)during hip hemiarthroplasty.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed 89 patients of hip hemiarthroplasty who suffered from femoral neck fracture.There were 47 patients in the new method group(NM), and 42 patients in the traditional method group(traditional method, TM)which comparing the position of the greater trochanter tip and the center of the femoral head.In the NM group, the distance from the center of femoral head to the lesser trochanter(L)and the diameter of femoral head(D)of the healthy side hip were measured on preoperative anteroposterior pelvic X-ray film, and the ratio(R)of D to L was calculated.During operation, the diameter of the femoral head(d)was measured with a caliper, and the distance should be obtained from the center of the femoral head prosthesis to the lesser trochanter according to the ratio R of the healthy side.The difference of postoperative LLD between the two groups and the incidences of |LLD| in each range were compared.Results:In the NM group, the maximum LLD was 11.10 mm and the minimum LLD was -4.0 mm, with an average of(4.4±3.2)mm, 80.9%(38/47)| LLD | < 6 mm, 93.6%(44/47)| LLD | < 10 mm, 6.4%(3/47)| LLD | ≥ 10 mm.In the TM group, the maximum LLD was 13.2 mm and the minimum LLD was -8.3 mm, with an average of (6.2±5.1)mm, 42.9%(18/42)|LLD|<6 mm, 69.0%(29/42)|LLD| <10 mm, 31.0%(13/42)|LLD|≥10mm.The differences of patients of the mean postoperative LLD and the incidences of |LLD| in each range between two the groups were statistically significant( t=-2.036、 χ2=14.629, P=0.046、0.001). Conclusions:The new method is simple, convenient, more accurate and can obtain a more satisfactory LLD compared with the traditional method which refers to the relative position of the great trochanter tip and the center of the femoral head.

RESUMEN
Obesity has been seriously endangering the human health,and it is one of the most serious chronic diseases in the modem society.Losing excess weight can decrease the incidence of obesity-related diseases and mortality.Currently,surgical treatment is the most successful and durable therapy for obesity.Since 1952,when the first metabolic surgery was reported,there has been a variety of metabolic surgeries appearing,which got confirmation and innovation continually worldwide.The metabolic surgery started in China in 1980s,until now closing to the world level gradually from a relative disadvantage.Metabolic surgery transformed from open surgery to laparoscopic surgery,and then it has been changing from the extensive mode to the precision mode.Surgical treatment for obesity and metabolic diseases has great potential and vast development prospects in China.
RESUMEN
Objective To evaluate the early clinic effects and anterior knee pain after total knee arthroplasty with or without patellar resurfacing.Methods From June 2010 to June 2011,100 patients who underwent TKA in our department were covered in this study,they were randomly divided two groups:resurfacing of the patellar (42 patients,50 knee) and nonresurfacing of the patellar (57 patients,66 knee).They were followed up at 6th month and 12th month.Comparison was performed with the West Ontario and McMaster Universities score (WOMAC) and Knee Surgery Society (KSS) score system,anterior knee pain visual analogue scale (VAS) score between two groups.Results Anterior knee pain VAS score had significant improvement postoperation in resurfacing groups and nonresurfacing group.But there was no statistical difference between two groups.In two groups,WOMAC scores at 6th month were 28.8±11.2 and 18.6±7.2,20.7±6.2 and 16.0±5.5 at 12th month.KSS scores at 6th month were 87.0±8.3 and 90.9±7.2,84.2±10.6 and 88.8±9.2 at 12th month.And the KSS function scores at 6th month were 86.6±21.6 and 84.9±16.5,85.2±16.4 and 91.0±10.0 at 12th month and had no statistical difference between two groups.In sunrise views (Bending 30 degrees),the curvature tolerance between patella and femoral trochlea was well at two timestamp postoperation without instability and dislocation.No revision of TKA and no re-resurfacing of patella one year after TKA.Conclusion TKA is very effective for relief of knee pain and improvement of joint function for OA and RA.Patella resurfacing and nonresurfacing have not significant difference during one year and two ways,and have the same good result in function and anterior knee pain improvement.
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the anatomic structure of the Chinese people,develop the procedure of minimally invasive total hip arthroplasty through the anterolateral intermuscular approach and investigate its clinical outcome.Methods Three fresh adult cadavers(6 hips)were used for study of the anatomic construction of the anterolateral intermuscular approach in Chinese people.Sixteen patients were treated with minimally invasive total hip arthroplasty through anterolateral intermuscular approach.The clinical results and operation technique were recorded.Results The anterolateral intermuscular approach was a triangle muscular interval slightly parallel to the femur.The medial-superior angle of the triangle muscular interval consists of the anterior border of gluteus medius and tensor fascia lata muscle with juncture of muscles,where the inferior branch of superior gluteal nerve entered into tensor fascia lata muscle.The average incision length was 8.8 cm(7-10 cm),with mean blood loss of 350 ml(250-550 ml).The patients took out-of-bed activity 3-5 days after operations.During operations,anterior border injury in deep portion of the gluteus medius muscle was observed in seven patients and the injured muscles were trimed or repaired.All patients were followed up for 18-39 months(averaged 27.7 months).Most of the patients had excellent location of the phantoms,except that one acetabulum had a little pitch angle and two acetabulums had a little abduction angle.No complication was observed.The mean Harris scores of hip for all patients was increased from preoperative(39.1±6.7)points to(80.6±11.3)points on six month,(88.7±9.6)points on 12 month and(91.4±13.5)points on 24 months(11 patients).No patient suffered from gluteus medius muscle weakness during the follow-up.ConclusionAnterolateral intermuscular approach has the advantages of simple anatomic construction,small incision,little operative injury,muscle sparing and fast recovery without separate muscle or tendon and is suitable for the Chinese patients.Exact incision and special operative instruments should be emphasized to avoid the increase of acetabular pitch angle and abduction angle.

RESUMEN
Objective To discuss the design of arthroscopic reconstruction of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) with quadriceps tendon fixed by a patellar block and an allograft bone plug, and its clinical outcome. Methods Thirteen patients suffering from PCL injury were treated by the technique mentioned above. The connection between quadriceps tendon and superior patellar pole was preserved in the harvest process of quadriceps tendon. The femoral tunnel was made like a bottle neck, which was clogged with the patellar bone block. The quadriceps tendon strip was fixed by an allograft bone plug pressed into the tibial tunnel. Their functional recovery was evaluated by Lysholm scoring and IKDC(International Knee Documentation Committee) criteria. Results In the average follow-up period of 19 months, there were not any severe nerve or blood vessel lesions, or failures of transplanted ligament None of the patient complained of knee instability after the operation. The pain was relieved in most patients, but three complained of pain after knee movement A little calcification was found in the quadriceps tendon at the superior patellar pole one year after the operation in the X-ray of a patient There was significant difference in Lysholm scale between pre-operation and post-operation (P
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate clinical results of the treatment of posterior shoulder instability in a combined way of bone block procedure and posterior capsulorrhaphy. Methods The double contrast CT arthrography was performed for 5 patients suffering from posterior shoulder instability so as to detect the pathology. The treatments combining bone block procedure and posterior capsulorrhaphy were carried out according to the pathological conditions of bone and soft tissue. Results The double contrast CT arthrography showed posterior bone defects, posterior glenoid labrum tear and enlargement of posterior capsular cavity. After the bone block procedure and posterior capsulorrhaphy, no patients complained shoulder instability in the follow-up of 5 to 38 months. Conclusions Many pathological factors may induce posterior shoulder instability, which should be corrected by an appropriate operation rather than a “standard”method of operation. For patients involving several pathological factors, a combined operation may be needed in order to correct various pathological changes.

Objective To analyze the characteristics, surgical timing and treatment of middle super thoracic fractures. Methods 35 cases of middle super thoracic fractures (T1 10) were retrospectively reviewed. Among them, 25 cases were complete injury of the spinal cord and 10 cases were neurologically incomplete injury. The bleeding in operations at different times, the ASIA grades and the sensorimotor scores were analyzed. Results The follow up showed that the ASIA grade increased by 1 to 2 degrees in 10 cases of incomplete spinal cord injury, while in complete spinal cord injury the ASIA grades hardly increased but the sense and motion scores could be improved by about 20. Conclusions Middle super thoracic fractures often involve multi vertebra body, and the spinal cord is injured severely. Decompression, fusion, internal fixation from posterior approach can obtain a satisfactory result. Neurologically incomplete injury should be treated as soon as possible, while complete injury of the spinal cord should be treated around 2 weeks after the injury.
