Thoracolumbar compression fractures (TLFs) are common spinal injuries. Due to prolonged bed rest, pain-induced stress, and other factors, the incidence of constipation in affected patients exceeds 70%, which hinders rehabilitation. This study describes the operational procedures of acupoint application for the treatment of such constipation. To do this, acupoints were selected, including Tianshu (ST25), Daheng (SP15), Zusanli (ST36), Shangjuxu (ST37), and Zhigou (TE6), Chinese medicinal herbs such as Rheum officinale were ground into a paste for application, with a frequency of 1x a day, 6 h per session, and 2 weeks as one treatment course. Efficacy and safety were evaluated using the time interval to the first defecation after treatment, Patient Assessment of Constipation Symptom, Patient Assessment of Constipation Quality of Life, Visual Analog Scale scores, and adverse reactions. Forty-two patients with TLFs complicated by constipation were enrolled and randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group. After 2 weeks, constipation was improved in both groups, with all efficacy indicators of the experimental group being superior to those of the control group (p <0.05). No severe adverse reactions were observed in either group. The study indicates that acupoint application can effectively improve constipation in patients with high safety, providing a non-invasive intervention protocol. In the future, it is planned to expand the sample size to conduct multi-center studies, optimize the medicinal formula and treatment course, and explore the mechanism of action to support clinical promotion.
Background Arthroscopic repair is a promising, minimally invasive surgical technique for patients with Palmer type 1B peripheral triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) tears. Although several arthroscopic techniques are effective for repairing Palmer type 1B TFCC tears, some shortcomings remain. So, we report an arthroscopic repair technique for the treatment of Palmer type 1B Atzei class 1 TFCC tears using an intracapsular suture: an outside-in transfer all-inside repair. Methods A retrospective analysis of 38 Palmer type 1B TFCC injury patients admitted to our hospital were randomly divided into 2 groups. The group A was sutured from the outside to the inside, with a total of 21 cases; the group B was sutured with the new arthroscopic repair technique, with a total of 17 cases. Observe and compare the VAS scores and modified Mayo wrist function scores of all patients before 3, and 6 months after the operation and evaluate the incidence of thread knots in patients with different treatment methods. The methodology was performed an arthroscopic intracapsular suture using an outside-in transfer, all-inside repair technique, which is a modified method of the outside-in and all-inside technique using the needle of a 10-mL sterile syringe, for Palmer type 1B TFCC tears. A No. 2 polydioxanone suture was threaded through the needle and entered the wrist joint. Next, the needle was withdrawn carefully along the suture to the proximal tear ulnar surface of the TFCC and penetrated the TFCC, exiting the articular cavity surface of the ulnar side of the torn TFCC. Finally, arthroscopic knotting was performed. Results This new treatment was as effective as the previously arthroscopic techniques and had the advantages of no additional incision and decreased risk of operation-related complications. The incidence of thread knots in the group A (28.57%) was significantly higher than that in the group B (0%), and the difference was statistically significant ( P = 0.024). There was no significant difference in VAS score and modified Mayo wrist function scores between the two groups ( P > 0.05). Conclusions The outside-in transfer, the all-inside repair technique is suitable for Palmer type 1B Atzei class 1 TFCC tears. We recommend this technique as a useful alternative to the conventional methods of repairing Palmer type 1B TFCC tears.

BACKGROUND:Nonspecific low back pain (NLBP) is a common disabling disease that cannot be attributed to a specific, recognizable pathology. The use of acupuncture for NLBP is supported by several guidelines and systematic reviews. However, the efficacy of different acupuncture methods for NLBP management is still debated. This study ranked the effectiveness of acupuncture methods using network meta-analysis to screen out the optimal acupuncture methods and expound the current controversies for their effective application in health policies as well as guiding clinical operations.METHODS:The following databases were searched for relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) from inception to December 20, 2020: China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP Database for Chinese Technical Periodicals, WANFANG Database, Chinese biomedical literature service system, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library. Relevant registration platforms, including the International Standard Randomised Controlled Trial Number Register (ISRCTN) and Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR), were also searched. Manual retrieval and tracking of references was also performed. Pairwise meta-analysis and Bayesian network meta-analysis using Revman and ADDIS, respectively, were performed and standardized mean differences examined. The primary outcome was visual analog scale (VAS) score and the secondary outcome was Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) score. Safety was defined as the incidence of adverse events.RESULTS:A total of 30 trials with 3196 participants were analyzed; 16.67% of which showed a high risk of bias. The results indicated that fire acupuncture plus manual acupuncture, auricular needling, and electroacupuncture plus warm acupuncture were most effective in reducing VAS score. The most effective interventions for reducing ODI score were manual acupuncture plus conventional medicines, followed by moxibustion and manual acupuncture plus moxibustion. Manual acupuncture plus moxibustion was dominant in the cluster ranking. Acupuncture showed a lower incidence of adverse events (7.70%) than other interventions (conventional medicines, routine care, and placebo; 12.24%).CONCLUSION:We found that manual acupuncture plus moxibustion is the most effective way to reduce NLBP pain and disability. Acupuncture is safer than other interventions. However, more direct comparative evidence from high-quality, large-sample, multicenter RCTs is needed to validate these findings.

Abstract Background: With advancements in our understanding of meniscal function, treatment options for meniscal injuries have evolved considerably over the past few decades. The aim of the current study was to compare the all-inside and inside-out techniques with regard to retear rate, functional outcomes, and perioperative complications in patients who had undergone arthroscopic meniscus repair. We hypothesized that there was no significant difference between the 2 groups in terms of postoperative outcomes after arthroscopic meniscus repair. Methods: This study was a prospective randomized blinded study, with a parallel design and an allocation ratio of 1:1 for the treatment groups. This study was approved by the Institutional Review Board in our hospital and written informed consent was obtained from all subjects participating in the trial. It was carried out in accordance with the principles of the Helsinki Declaration. A total of 70 patients who meet inclusion criteria are randomized to either all-inside or inside-out group. The primary outcome measure was retear rate. Retear was determined by repeat arthroscopic evaluation of patients with follow-up for symptoms of persistent or new pain, catching, or locking that was possibly related to the meniscal repair. Secondary outcomes included disease-specific quality of life measurement with the Western Ontario Meniscal Evaluation Tool, range of motion, operative time, and adverse events at surgery or throughout the follow-up period. Results: This study has limited inclusion and exclusion criteria and a well-controlled intervention. Trial registration: This study protocol was registered in Research Registry (researchregistry5589).

Background As the artificial joint technology and material become matured gradually,the humeral head replacement starts to play an important role in the clinical treatment of severe lesion of shoulder joint,which can effectively relieve pain and recover the passive range of motion of the shoulder joint after operation,but its active motion still depends on the shoulder muscle strength,so the early postoperative rehabilitation training has become the key treatment measures after the humeral head replacement.This paper discusses the effect of early rehabilitation training on the shoulder joint recovery after artificial humeral head replacement.Methods From February 2010 to June 2013,1 1 cases of severe shoulder joint lesion received the artificial humeral head replacement operation.Among them,3 were males,8 were females;aged 46 to 73 years old,averagely 52.1 years old.The cause of injury:9 cases of proximal humeral fractures,1 case of ischemic necrosis of the humeral head and 1 case of giant cell tumor of proximal humerus.With the contralateral shoulder as control,preoperative routine anteroposterior,oblique and axillary plain X-ray of shoulder joint were required,and also the shoulder MRI examination,in order to assess the damage of skeletal and soft tissue.Use the beach chair position under general anesthesia.Then routinely do the skin preparation and draping.We take the deltoid and pectoralis major muscle interval approach,then release the deltoid along the shaft of humerus,and retract the conjoint tendon medially,incise the subscapularis tendon and the anterior capsule,adjust the hypsokinesis angle according to the joint stability,cut off it and measure the diameter of humeral head to determine the size of prosthesis,carefully clean the broken ends of the proximal humerus fracture patients.Install the suitable size of test model after largening the medullary cavity,check the ROM and soft tissue tension after the reduction of the shoulder.Remove the template if it is ideal,pulse flushing the medullary cavity,use the bone cement to stabilize the prosthesis,reset the shoulder joint,use the Ethibond suture to fix the subscapularis and tubercules,carefully repair of the rotator cuff,at last make sure the shoulder joint function is good without impingement.Rinse the wound again and place a plasma drainage,finally close the incision layer by layer.Keep the drainage according to the amount of blood in 24-48 h,protect the limb with a wrist neck sling for 3-6 weeks.The rehabilitation training started the first day after the operation,operated by specialized rehabilitation physicians in different stages.Passive activities are in the main position during the early stage,then gradually transit to the active and strength training.The first stage:do the hand,wrist,elbow flexion and extension training,passive shoulder flexion and lateral external rotation exercise 1 to 2 weeks postoperatively.According to the individual tolerance, gradually increase the amount of activity.The second stage:the shoulder swelling is gone and the pain is relieved,also the surgical suture is removed after 3-6 weeks,patients were instructed to gradually strengthen the shoulder internal rotation,muscle isometric and active anti resistance training in the clinic.The third stage:the tendon has healed and the activity of shoulder joint has improved after 7-12 weeks,mainly do the active muscle strength exercise to increase the range of motion.The fourth stage:12 weeks later,on the basis of former training,further strengthen the strength resistance training,and selectively focus on some muscle and joint assess the patient′s houlder function before operation and 6 and 12 weeks post operatively.The modified UCLA score is taken in evaluation of pain relief,joint function,range of motion and muscle recovery.In 35 total points:34-35 is excellent, 29-33 is good;29 or less is poor.Results 1 patient died of tumor metastasis 6 months after operation, the other 10 cases were followed up for averagely 1 5.4 months (12-40 months).The incision of all the patients were healed without infection,2 cases complained the shoulder pain,which was relieved by symptomatic treatment.All the 1 1 patients got X-ray examinations the first day after operation, before leaving the hospital,after 6 and 12 months.It showed a good position of prosthesis and there was no sign of loosening, joint instability, shoulder impingement, joint stiffness and other complications.The patients were satisfied with their shoulder joint function.After 6 weeks,the active ROM of shoulder improved significantly,compared with it before the surgery,the difference was statistically significant (t =7.32,P <0.05);the shoulder AROM further recovered after 12 weeks, then they can look after themselves,the difference was statistically significant in each direction′s activity,compared with 6 weeks after operation (t = 5.56,P < 0.05 ).The difference of shoulder direction was statistically significant,compared with the healthy side (t =2.05,P <0.05).We use a modified UCLA score to evaluate the shoulder function :excellent in 8 cases,good in 2 cases,poor in 0 cases,the average score was 33.6.For the data processing,we use SPASS 1 7.0 software to deal with the statistics,all the data are expressed by (s)before and after treatment,using one sample t test,P <0.05 means the difference was statistically significant.Conclusions The early rehabilitation training activities is good to maintain the ROM of the reconstructed joint,promote the recovery of muscle strength and improve the function of joint.It plays a key role in the long-term effect of humeral head replacement.
