Efficacy and risk factors for anxiety and depression after miniincision hip arthroplasty for femoral head osteonecrosis

BACKGROUND Osteonecrosis of the femoral head(ONFH)is a prevalent orthopedic issue,leading to the collapse and fragmentation of the femoral head in its advanced stages,which can severely impair patients'quality of life.Total hip arthroplasty(THA)is a clinical intervention frequently used to alleviate ONFH symptoms and reinstate hip functionality.The conventional surgical technique is invasive and comes with an extended recuperation period,posing significant challenges for patients.With the progression of medical technology,the use of the mini-incision technique in minimally invasive THA(MITHA)has become more prevalent.However,comparative studies examining the effectiveness of these two surgical procedures in treating ONFH remain scarce.Furthermore,understanding patients'psychological well-being is crucial given its profound influence on postoperative recuperation.AIM To evaluate the impact of mini-incision MITHA on ONFH treatment and to identify the risk factors associated with postoperative anxiety and depression.METHODS A retrospective study was conducted on 125 patients treated for ONFH at Xi’an Hong Hui Hospital between February 2020 and January 2022,with the term"consecutive"indicating that these patients were treated in an unbroken sequence without any selection.Among these,60 patients(control group)underwent traditional THA,while 65 patients(observation group)were treated with miniincision MITHA.Variations in the visual analog scale(VAS)score and the Harris hip score were monitored.Additionally,shifts in pre-and posttreatment Hamilton anxiety(HAMA)and Hamilton depression(HAMD)scale scores were recorded.Patients with both postoperative HAMA and HAMD scores of≥8 were identified as those experiencing negative emotions.Logistic regression was utilized to analyze the determinants influencing these negative emotional outcomes.Comparative analyses of surgical and postoperative metrics between the two groups were also conducted.RESULTS Posttreatment results indicated a significantly higher VAS score in the control group than in the observation group,while the Harris score was considerably lower(P<0.0001).The observation group benefited from a notably shorter operation duration,reduced blood loss,diminished incision size,and a decreased postoperative drainage time(P<0.0001),accompanied by a reduced hospital stay and lower treatment costs(P<0.0001).The control group had elevated posttreatment HAMA and HAMD scores in comparison to the observation group(P<0.0001).Multivariate logistic regression revealed that being female[odds ratio(OR):4.394,95%CI:1.689-11.433,P=0.002],having a higher postoperative VAS score(OR:5.533,95%CI:2.210-13.848,P<0.0001),and having higher treatment costs(OR:7.306,95%CI:2.801-19.057,P<0.0001)were significant independent determinants influencing postoperative mood disturbances.CONCLUSION Compared to conventional THA,mini-incision MITHA offers advantages such as reduced operation time,minimal bleeding,and a shorter incision in ONFH patients.Moreover,factors such as sex,postoperative pain(reflected in the VAS score),and treatment costs significantly impact postoperative anxiety and depression.

Effect of Tongluo Shenggu Prescription on ARCO Stage Ⅱ non-traumatic femoral head necrosis: A prospective study

Objective:To observe the clinical results and therapeutic characteristics of Tongluo Shenggu Decoction in the treatment of ARCOⅡnon-traumatic femoral head necrosis.Methods:120 patients with ARCOⅡnon-traumatic femoral head necrosis from January 2016 to January 2017 were studied by prospective matched and controlled design.60 cases in the treatment group were treated with Tongluo Shenggu Formula.The control group(60 cases)received high energy extracorporeal shock wave therapy.The imaging stability rate,Harris score and SF-36 score were used as clinical efficacy indicators,followed up for 24 months,and the follow-up results were statistically analyzed.Results:Among the 120 patients,5 fell off and the rest were followed up.The imaging stability rate is heavy.The imaging stability rate of the patients in the treatment group is 78.95%,while that in the control group is 72.41%.The two groups have the same stability rate(P>0.05).In Harris score,the Harris score of the patients in the treatment group was 92.678.45 points,significantly higher than that of the control group(80.3924.65 points),the difference was statistically significant(p<0.05),and the pain degree,joint function and joint deformity score of the treatment group were better than those of the control group(p<0.05).In the SF-36 score,the scores of physiological function,physiological function,physical pain,overall health,social function and emotional function in the treatment group were significantly higher than those in the control group,the difference was statistically significant(p<0.05).the incidence of adverse events in the treatment period of the two groups was lower and the patients could relieve themselves in the later stage.Conclusion:Tongluo Shenggu prescription has definite curative effect in treating ARCOⅡnon-traumatic femoral head necrosis,especially in improving hip joint function,relieving hip joint pain and improving quality of life.To observe the clinical results and therapeutic characteristics of Tongluo Shenggu Decoction in the treatment of ARCOⅡnon-traumatic femoral head necrosis.Methods:120 patients with ARCOⅡnon-traumatic femoral head necrosis from January 2016 to January 2017 were studied by prospective matched and controlled design.60 cases in the treatment group were treated with Tongluo Shenggu Formula.The control group(60 cases)received high energy extracorporeal shock wave therapy.The imaging stability rate,Harris score and SF-36 score were used as clinical efficacy indicators,followed up for 24 months,and the follow-up results were statistically analyzed.Results:Among the 120 patients,5 fell off and the rest were followed up.The imaging stability rate is heavy.The imaging stability rate of the patients in the treatment group is 78.95%,while that in the control group is 72.41%.The two groups have the same stability rate(P>0.05).In Harris score,the Harris score of the patients in the treatment group was 92.678.45 points,significantly higher than that of the control group(80.3924.65 points),the difference was statistically significant(p<0.05),and the pain degree,joint function and joint deformity score of the treatment group were better than those of the control group(p<0.05).In the SF-36 score,the scores of physiological function,physiological function,physical pain,overall health,social function and emotional function in the treatment group were significantly higher than those in the control group,the difference was statistically significant(p<0.05).the incidence of adverse events in the treatment period of the two groups was lower and the patients could relieve themselves in the later stage.Conclusion:Tongluo Shenggu prescription has definite curative effect in treating ARCOⅡnon-traumatic femoral head necrosis,especially in improving hip joint function,relieving hip joint pain and improving quality of life.
