RESUMO
Objective:To analyze the factors influencing functional recovery after surgery of calcaneal fracture.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed in 1,080 eligible patients with calcaneal fracture who had been admitted to The Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2020. They were 931 males and 149 females with a mean age of 43.0 years. By the Sanders classification, there were 107 cases of type Ⅰ, 343 cases of type Ⅱ, 471 cases of type Ⅲ and 159 cases of type Ⅳ. Multiple linear regression model was used to screen out the main relevant factors affecting the postoperative functional recovery by analyzing the 18 factors which might influence the postoperative functional recovery like gender, age, Sanders type, occupation, body mass index, season, cause, hospital stay, operation method, internal fixation, preoperative combined injury, preoperative complication, anesthesia, attendance to rehabilitation institution, incision selection, waiting time, preoperative blister and reduction quality.Results:All the 1,080 patients were followed up for 17.5 months on average. The mean Creighton-Nebraska score at the last follow-up was 88.4. The univariate analyses showed statistically significant differences in the Creighton-Nebraska score among patients with different gender, age group, Sanders type, occupation, injury cause, surgical method, preoperative combined injury, incision selection and reduction quality ( P<0.05). Multiple linear regression model analysis resulted in the following regression equation: Y=107.408-4.013×gender-7.101×age-1.214×Sanders type-1.606×incision selection. Conclusions:The factors which influence the functional recovery after surgery of calcaneal fracture may be gender, age, fracture type and incision selection; the functional recovery score after surgery of calcaneal fracture may be low for female senior patients with type Ⅳ fracture and a large L-shaped incision.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the effects of different concentrations of chloroprocaine on KCNQ2/Q3 channel currents in HEK2936 cells.Methods Human embryonic kidney (HEK293) cells served as an expression system.KCNQ2 and KCNQ3 cDNAs and green fluorescent protein were transfected into HEK293 cells by using lipofectamine.The KCNQ2/Q3 currents were recorded by using the whole-cell patch-clamp technique.Part Ⅰ The transfected HEK293 cells were randomly divided into 4 groups (n =11 each):control group,and 1,10 and 100 mmol/L chloroprocaine groups.The KCNQ2/Q3 channel currents produced by different concentrations of chloroprocaine were recorded under different holding potentials (-40,0 and 40 mV) and the action time was 1 min.Part Ⅱ The transfected HEK293 cells were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =5 each):control group and 10 mmol/L chloroprocaine.The KCNQ2/Q3 channel currents were recorded under different holding potentials (-80-30 mV)and the action time was 1 min.Different test potentials were normalized and fitted to Boltzmann function,and KCNQ2/Q3 channel Ⅰ-Ⅴ curve was then obtained.The activation and deactivation currents were both fitted to a single exponential function and the time constants for current activation and for current deactivation were calculated.Results Part Ⅰ When the holding potential was 40,0 and-40 mV,the suppression rate of KCNQ2/Q3 channel currents in HEK293 cells was higher in 1,10 and 100 mmol/L chloroprocaine groups than in control group (P ＜0.05 or 0.01).Part Ⅱ Compared with control group,the time constant for the current activation at 0 mV of holding potential was prolonged,the time constant for the current deactivation was shortened when the holding potential was-80 mV,and the half-activation voltage of KCNQ2/Q3 channels was increased,the activation curve shifted to the depolarized potentials,and KCNQ2/Q3 channel Ⅰ-Ⅴ curve slope was decreased in 10 mmol/L chloroprocaine group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Chloroprocaine concentration-dependently suppresses KCNQ2/Q3 channel currents in HEK2936 cells.The KCNQ2/Q3 channel is closed in advance due to KCNQ2/Q3 channel opening delay induced by chloroprocaine thus decreasing the activity of KCNQ2/Q3 channels.
RESUMO
Objective To retrospectively study postoperative nonunion of femoral neck fractures so as to identify high risk factors for their nonunion.Methods A total of 965 patients with complete clinical data out of the 1 323 patients with femoral neck fractures treated by internal fixation with cannulated compression screws from January 2003 to January 2011 were included in the study.Logistic muhiple regression method was used to analyze five factors including patients' age,gender,injury mechanism (whether high energy injury or not),fracture type (with or without displacement) and medical comorbidities [American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Score (ASAS) grade] and their correlation with fracture healing to investigate the high risk factors for the nonunion of femoral neck fractures.Results Quantitative assay of the factors affecting healing of femoral neck fractures was ranged as follows:medical comorbidities (ASAS grade),injury mechanism (whether high energy injury or not),fracturc type (with or without displacement),gender and age.Conclusion Age ＞ 50 years,females,displacement fracture,high energy injury,and ASAS grade above Ⅲ are high risk factors for nonunion of femoral neck fractures.
