Background The prevalence of hip fractures is increasing due to increased number of aging people and availability of modern transportation. Elderly patients with hip fracture tend to have many basic diseases and poor prognosis, with 1-year postoperative mortality as high as 15%-25%. Timely screening of those at high risk of hip fractures with predictive tools and providing them with interventions can improve the prognosis. But there are rare studies and no appropriate objective indicators regarding predicted 1-year postoperative mortality in older hip fracture patients. Objective To assess the predictive association of Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score and other possible associated factors for 1-year postoperative mortality in elderly patients with hip fracture. Methods A total of 399 patients with unilateral hip fracture (including femoral neck and intertrochanteric fractures) hospitalized in Xuanwu Hospital Capital Medical University from January 2013 to March 2016 were selected. General data, routine blood test results, biochemical and coagulation indices, and calculated CONUT score, geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) were collected. All the patients received internal fixation or femoral head replacement procedure, and 1-year postoperative clinic- and telephone-based follow-up with death as an endpoint. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to identify influencing factors of 1-year postoperative mortality. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to analyze the predictive value of CONUT score for 1-year postoperative mortality. Results Among the 399 patients, 47 died and 352 survived at the end of follow-up. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis found that age〔OR=1.093, 95%CI (1.040, 1.148) 〕, old cerebral infarction〔OR=0.353, 95%CI (0.169, 0.737) 〕, serum creatinine〔OR=1.006, 95%CI (1.002, 1.010) 〕, CONUT score〔OR=1.261, 95%CI (1.005, 1.583) 〕 and NLR〔OR=1.049, 95%CI (1.003, 1.098) 〕 were associated with 1-year postoperative mortality (P<0.05). In predicting 1-year postoperative mortality, the area under the curve of CONUT score was 0.681〔95%CI (0.590, 0.771) 〕 with 4.5 as the optimal cutoff point, 48.9% sensitivity and 83.5% specificity. The area under the curve of NLR was 0.611〔95%CI (0.523, 0.699) 〕, with 7.055 μg/L as the optimal cutoff point, and 47.8% sensitivity and 75.9% specificity. Conclusion Age, old cerebral infarction, serum creatinine, CONUT score and NLR were associated with 1-year postoperative mortality in elderly patients with hip fracture. Preoperative CONUT score greater than 5 may be associated with worse postoperative nutritional status and higher risk of death. The CONUT score could be used for postoperative risk assessment in these patients.

Background & Objective: Hip fracture is common osteoporotic fracture associated sometimes with failed internal fixation. Joint replacement is commonly used to salvage failed internal fixation of hip fractures (FIFHF). Our objective was to present the outcome of Arthroplasty after FIFHF in our patients.Methods: A prospective analysis was made on consecutive patients who underwent prosthetic replacements for FIFHF in Orthopaedics Department of Xuanwu Hospital between June 2012 and January 2015. Fifty six patients were included. There were 32 cases of failed internal fixation of femoral neck fracture (FIFFNF) and 24 cases of failed internal fixation of intertrochanteric fracture (FIFIF). The reoperations included 36 cases of total hip replacements, and 20 cases of bipolar femoral head replacements. Cemented prostheses were used in 19 patients (long-stems in 7 patients), and uncemented prostheses in 37 patients (long-stems in 12 patients). The patients were followed up for a minimum of 12 months or until their death.Results: Two patients died of pulmonary infection in the perioperative period, two died of myocardial infarction in two months after the operation, and the rest survived 12 month follow-up at the least. The mean Harris hip scores of the patients were 47 and 85 before and after the operation, respectively. The rate of Excellent and Good results is 82.7%. T tests showed that difference between pre and post-operation Harris hip scores is statistically significant (p < 0.001).Conclusions: Arthroplasty may serve as a suitable salvage technique for FIFHF, and long-stem prosthesis replacement is proved to obtain reliable curative effect, especially in FIFIF.
Remote ischemic post‑conditioning (RIPC) is an established method to activate the hypoxia‑inducible factor‑1α (HIF‑1α) pathway, which is involved in the impairment of fracture healing. However, the role of RIPC in fracture healing remains to be fully elucidated. In the present study, rats received fractures and were divided into two groups: Control and RIPC, in which hind limb occlusion was performed. Rats were sacrificed at 7, 14, 28 and 42 days subsequent to tibial fracture. Micro‑computed tomography was performed to measure healing of the bone tissue and biomechanical testing was used to test mechanical strength. In addition, the effects of hind limb occlusion on the expression of two primary angiogenic mediators, HIF‑1α and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), as well as the osteoblast markers runt‑related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and osteocalcin (OCN), were determined at the mRNA and protein levels by reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction, western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry. Systemic administration of hind limb occlusion (3 cycles/day, with each occlusion or release phase lasting 10 min) significantly promoted fracture healing and mechanical strength. The present study demonstrated that in rats treated with hind limb occlusion, the expression of HIF‑1α, VEGF, Runx2, ALP and OCN was significantly increased at the mRNA and protein levels, and that RIPC enhances fracture repair in vivo.
OBJECTIVE:To analyze the reasons of early failure of the PHILOS in proximal humerus fractures.METHODS:From Nov. 2010 to Nov. 2014, there were 117 patients with humerus fractures treated with PHILOS locking plate in Department of Orthopaedics, Xuanwu Hospital. All of the patients were treated with the plate by open reduction internal fixation, and we analyzed these cases retrospectively. After the operation, we removed the drainage tube within 48 h, and the patients were allowed to do the passive motion 3 days after the surgery if the X-Ray showed the plate and screws were reliable. Eight cases failed within 4 weeks after the operation. We analyzed the reasons of the failure.RESULTS:The rate of the failed cases was 6.83%(8/117). The average age was 72.4(66-82) years. In the 8 failed cases, 3 were on the right side, and the other 5 on the left side. As for the reason of the fractures, 2 cases were because of car accidents, and the other 6 because of daily life injury. According to the Neer classification, 3 cases were 2-part fractures, and the other 5 3-part fractures. Three cases were total failure, and the other 5 partial failure. All the 8 failed cases failed within 4 weeks after the operation, of which 1 was on the sixth day after surgery, the other 7 2 to 4 weeks after the surgery.The 3 totally failed cases were treated by removing the screws and plates, the other 5 by conservative methods. All of the cases were malunion at the end.CONCLUSION:The early failure of the PHILOS locking plate in proximal humerus fractures is related to the bad reduction during the operation, the loss of medial cortex support, the limitation of screw length, the osteoporosis and the improper rehabilitation after operation.It is very important to do good preoperative plan for a surgeon. During the operation, we should try our best in the fracture reduction, use the appropriate plate and screws, and then pay attention to the rehabilitation after the operation. After all of this, the rate of failure may be decreased.
Background/Aims: Hypoxia has been reported to regulate osteoblastic differentiation of bone cells and cartilage development. However, information concerning the molecular mechanisms remains largely unknown. Methods: The expression of miR-429 was evaluated by quantitative real-time PCR analysis. To test whether miR-429 directly regulate the expression level of ZFPM2 at transcription level, dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was performed. Western blotting was performed to detect osteogenesis related protein expression. The cell proliferation, apoptosis, alkaline phosphatase activity and matrix mineralization were performed to assess the functions of miR-429 in vitro and in vivo the effects of miR-429 on fracture healing. Results: Expression of miR-429 was increased in MC3T3-E1 cells treated with 200 μM CoCl2 by qRT-PCR, and overexpression of miR-429 promoted cell differentiation, and enhanced alkaline phosphatase activity and matrix mineralization. Luciferase reporter assays suggested that miR-429 directly targets the 3'UTR of ZFPM2. In addition, knockdown of ZFPM2 could phenocopy the effects of miR-429 expression. Furthermore, overexpression of ZFPM2 in miR-429-expressing MC3T3-E1 cells suppressed cell differentiation. Conclusions: Our results provide valuable insight into the potential role of hypoxia in regulation of osteoblastic cell differentiation.

不同疾病可出现不同性质、不同程度的疼痛,来源于骨质疏松症的骨痛是骨质疏松症患者的主要临床症状之一。骨质疏松症(osteoporosis, OP)是一种以骨量减少,骨微结构破坏,骨脆性增加,易发生骨折为特征的全身骨骼之疾病[1],是骨骼的退化,是老年退行性疾患的一种。我国界定60周岁以上的公民为老年人,截止2012年底,60岁以上老年人口达到1.94亿。随着老年人群的不断增加,伴随着年龄增长而患骨质疏松症的风险亦增加[2]。其实,老年OP的程度反应的是骨骼老化的程度,临床上主要体现在:①骨折。骨质疏松性骨折对健康危害最大,后果也最严重。它不仅增加了医疗成本、社会和家庭负担,而且完全可能由于一次轻微外伤所致的骨折而使患者死亡。鉴于其后果的严重性,骨质疏松性骨折已经引起了人们的高度重视;②身材变矮,骨骼弯曲、变形,驼背。其直观感觉是影响患者体形和外观,但是、由于老年人骨骼的高脆性[3],轻微外力甚至无明显外力即可能导致疏松变形、弯曲的骨骼出现骨折;③骨质疏松性骨痛。疼痛本来就是疾病的一种基本表现形式,如果骨质疏松骨痛得不到有效治疗,不仅增加了患者的痛苦,而且降低了行走和反应能力,从而使步履瞒珊老人跌倒的机率显著增加,即大大增加骨质疏松性骨折的风险。所以,在防范骨质疏松性骨折的同时,也应该关注骨质疏松骨痛的治疗。
Objective To explore the feasibility of external fixation of osteoporotic fractures in distal radius for el-der patients. Methods One hundred and seventy-seven cases of distal radial fractures with osteoporosis from May, 2009 to Jun, 2012 were treated. Among them, 26 cases (14.7%, with 4 cases of type B and 22 cases of type C in AO classifica-tion) were treated with external fixation after either open (15 cases) or close (11 cases) reductions. Results Twenty-five out of the 26 cases (96.2%) were followed up for 3~20 months and evaluated with Gartland and Werley evaluation systems. Eight patients were fulfilled the criteria of excellence, 11 were good (the total satisfaction rate was 76%), 4 were fair and 2 were poor (8%). Of the 14 cases with open reduction who were followed up, 5 were excellent, 6 were good (78.6%), 3 were fair and there was no case of poor. Of the 11 cases with close reduction cases, 3 were excellent ,5 were good (72.7%),1 was fair and 2 were poor (18.2%). Conclusion External fixation is suitable for surgical procedures in elderly patients be-cause of its minimally invasive in nature and limited open reduction can facilitate the rehabilitation of the anatomical rela-tions such as the radial length and articular surface of the distal radius, and good bone stability without displacement of the distal radius. Therefore, it is an effective approach in the treatment of osteoporotic fractures in the distal radius in elder pa-tients.
Objective To analyze the clinical data of intertrochanteric fractures,and to explore the potential factors influencing the perioperative blood loss volume and possible measures for improving the condition. Methods 343 patients treated intertrochanteric fractures with proximal femoral intramedullary snail were analyzed retrospectively from Jan 2008 to Dec 2011. Complete perioperative data were collected. The perioperative blood loss was calculated according to Equation of Gross. The potential factors influencing perioperative blood loss were analyzed. Results 343 cases of intertrochanteric fractures were treated successfully,without serious complications. 140 patients were male, and 203 patients were female. The average age was( 78. 76 ± 6. 97) years. The blood loss amount was 305-692 ml,and( 482. 8 ± 43. 6) ml averagely. The statistical analysis indicated that ages,hypertension,diabetes mellitus, cerebrovascular diseases and history,the type of fracture as well as operation time were the potential risk influencing factors of blood loss volume. In addition,the hidden blood losses were obviously more than the dominant blood loss. The hidden blood losses in patients older than 75 years old were more than those in patients less than 75 years old. The dominant blood losses in emergency operation were more than those inselective operation. Conclusion During the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures,older adults with diabetes or cerebrovascular diseases should be noted. Hematocrit must be tested at regular intervals. The comorbidities should be controlled properly,and careful manipulations are also benefit for reducing blood loss,such as blood pressure control during operation,incision closures in the operation and so on.
Objective To review the outcomes of geriatric distal humeral fracture fixed with locking compression plate(LCP). Methods Twenty-four elder patients with distal humeral fracture underwent open reduction and internal fix- ation with LCP. Fracture was caused by injury from fall in 23 cases, by traffic accident in 1 case. There were 9 cases of type A2, 2 cases of type A3, 2 cases of type B1, 2 cases of type C1, 5 cases of type C2, 4 cases of type C3 fractures ac- cording to AO/ASIF classification. Open reduction with olecranon osteotomy technique was applied to all patients except for those with type A fracture, and triceps sparing was considered only in comminuted type A fracture. Results The aver- age length of follow-up was 14 months(6-24 months). All fractures were healed within 6 months with an average of about 5 months. Five patients showed excellent healing, 12 were good, 3 were fair and 1 had poor healing according to the im- provement Cassebaum score system. Conclusion Open reduction and internal fixation with LCP for geriatric distal humer- al fracture can achieve relatively good functional results and bone healing.
Objective To explore the possibility and necessity of a new first aid model for trauma which integrates pre-hospital medial care with in-hospital treatment.Methods A comparison was made at the times of pre-operation preparation and hospitalization between two different trauma rescue models.From October in 2010 to October in 2011,116 patients were managed with the new integrated first aid model(pre-hospital care,emergency and multi-department consultations in the hospital) and 86 patients with traditional model(triage in emergency room,preliminary diagnosis by orthopedic doctors,multi-department consultations and medical care).Results There was no significant difference between the two groups in pre-hospital index score(PHI).The total times needed for the preparation before emergency operation and for hospitalization of the new model group were(58±29)min and(28±15)d respectively while those for the traditional model group were(125±60)min and(40±19)d.The differences between the two groups were statistical significant(P 0.01).Conclusion Both the time of pre-emergency operation and that of hospitalization for trauma patients are shortened through the application of the new trauma rescue model.Patients get better medical care and the efficiency of treatments is improved.
