Correlation between anxiety, depression, and social stress in young patients with thoracolumbar spine fractures

BACKGROUND Traumatic injuries,such as falling,car accidents,and crushing mostly cause spinal fractures in young and middle-aged people,and>50%of them are thoracolumbar fractures.This kind of fracture is easily combined with serious injuries to peripheral nerves and soft tissues,which causes paralysis of the lower limbs if there is no timely rehabilitation treatment.Young patients with thoracolumbar fractures find it difficult to recover after the operation,and they are prone to depression,low self-esteem,and other negative emotions.AIM To investigate the association between anxiety,depression,and social stress in young patients with thoracolumbar spine fractures and the effect on rehabilitation outcomes.METHODS This study retrospectively analyzed 100 patients admitted to the orthopedic department of Honghui Hospital,Xi’an Jiaotong University who underwent thoracolumbar spine fracture surgery from January 2022 to June 2023.The general data of the patients were assessed with the Hamilton anxiety scale(HAMA),Hamilton depression scale(HAMD),life events scale,and social support rating scale(SSRS)to identify the correlation between anxiety,depression scores,and social stress and social support.The Japanese Orthopedic Association(JOA)was utilized to evaluate the rehabilitation outcomes of the patients and to analyze the effects of anxiety and depression scores on rehabilitation.RESULTS According to the scores of HAMD and HAMA in all patients,the prevalence of depression in patients was 39%(39/100),and the prevalence of anxiety was 49%(49/100).Patients were categorized into non-depression(n=61)and depression(n=39),non-anxiety(n=51),and anxiety(n=49)groups.Statistically significant differences in gender,occupation,Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI)score,and monthly family income were observed between the non-depression and depression groups(P<0.05).A significant difference in occupation and PSQI score was found between the non-anxiety and anxiety groups.Both depression(r=0.207,P=0.038)and anxiety scores(r=0.473,P<0.001)were significantly and positively correlated with negative life events.The difference in negative life event scores as well as SSRS total and item scores was statist-ically significant between patients in the non-depression and depression groups(P<0.05).The difference between the non-anxiety and anxiety groups was statistically significant(P<0.05)in the negative life event scores as well as the total SSRS scores.Additionally,JOA scores were significantly lower in both anxious and depressed patients.CONCLUSION Young patients with thoracolumbar fractures are prone to anxiety and depression.Patients’anxiety and depression are closely associated with social pressure,which reduces the life pressure of young patients with thoracolumbar fractures,enhances social support,and improves the psychology of anxiety and depression.,which affects patients’recovery.

Characteristics of proppant transport and placement within rough hydraulic fractures

A three-dimensional reconstruction of rough fracture surfaces of hydraulically fractured rock outcrops is carried out by casting process,a large-scale experimental setup for visualizing rough fractures is built to perform proppant transport experiments.The typical characteristics of proppant transport and placement in rough fractures and its intrinsic mechanisms are investigated,and the influences of fracture inclination,fracture width and fracturing fluid viscosity on proppant transport and placement in rough fractures are analyzed.The results show that the rough fractures cause variations in the shape of the flow channel and the fluid flow pattern,resulting in the bridging buildup during proppant transport to form unfilled zone,the emergence of multiple complex flow patterns such as channeling,reverse flow and bypassing of sand-carrying fluid,and the influence on the stability of the sand dune.The proppant has a higher placement rate in inclined rough fractures,with a maximum increase of 22.16 percentage points in the experiments compared to vertical fractures,but exhibits poor stability of the sand dune.Reduced fracture width aggravates the bridging of proppant and induces higher pumping pressure.Increasing the viscosity of the fracturing fluid can weaken the proppant bridging phenomenon caused by the rough fractures.

Effect of fracture fluid flowback on shale microfractures using CT scanning

The field data of shale fracturing demonstrate that the flowback performance of fracturing fluid is different from that of conventional reservoirs,where the flowback rate of shale fracturing fluid is lower than that of conventional reservoirs.At the early stage of flowback,there is no single-phase flow of the liquid phase in shale,but rather a gas-water two-phase flow,such that the single-phase flow model for tight oil and gas reservoirs is not applicable.In this study,pores and microfractures are extracted based on the experimental results of computed tomography(CT)scanning,and a spatial model of microfractures is established.Then,the influence of rough microfracture surfaces on the flow is corrected using the modified cubic law,which was modified by introducing the average deviation of the microfracture height as a roughness factor to consider the influence of microfracture surface roughness.The flow in the fracture network is simulated using the modified cubic law and the lattice Boltzmann method(LBM).The results obtained demonstrate that most of the fracturing fluid is retained in the shale microfractures,which explains the low fracturing fluid flowback rate in shale hydraulic fracturing.

Complication rates after direct anterior vs posterior approach for hip hemiarthroplasty in elderly individuals with femoral neck fractures

BACKGROUND Dislocation rates after hemiarthroplasty reportedly vary from 1%to 17%.This serious complication is associated with increased morbidity and mortality rates.Approaches to this surgery are still debated,with no consensus regarding the superiority of any single approach.AIM To compare early postoperative complications after implementing the direct anterior and posterior approaches(PL)for hip hemiarthroplasty after femoral neck fractures.METHODS This is a comparative,retrospective,single-center cohort study conducted at a university hospital.Between March 2008 and December 2018,273 patients(a total of 280 hips)underwent bipolar hemiarthroplasties(n=280)for displaced femoral neck fractures using either the PL(n=171)or the minimally invasive direct anterior approach(DAA)(n=109).The choice of approach was related to the surgeons’practices;the implant types were similar and unrelated to the approach.Dislocation rates and other complications were reviewed after a minimum followup of 6 mo.RESULTS Both treatment groups had similarly aged patients(mean age:82 years),sex ratios,patient body mass indexes,and patient comorbidities.Surgical data(surgery delay time,operative time,and blood loss volume)did not differ significantly between the groups.The 30 d mortality rate was higher in the PL group(9.9%)than in the DAA group(3.7%),but the difference was not statistically significant(P=0.052).Among the one-month survivors,a significantly higher rate of dislocation was observed in the PL group(14/154;9.1%)than in the DAA group(0/105;0%)(P=0.002).Of the 14 patients with dislocation,8 underwent revision surgery for recurrent instability(posterior group),and one of them had 2 additional procedures due to a deep infection.The rate of other complications(e.g.,perioperative and early postoperative periprosthetic fractures and infection-related complications)did not differ significantly between the groups.CONCLUSION These findings suggest that the DAA to bipolar hemiarthroplasty for patients with femoral neck fractures is associated with a lower dislocation rate(<1%)than the PL.

单侧经皮椎体成形骨水泥分布对椎体压缩性骨折修复疗效的影响

背景:虽然研究表明,骨水泥的对称分布可以减少术后椎体再次骨折并有助于改善预后,但是进行经皮椎体成形过程中获得更好的骨水泥分布仍然是外科医生面临的一个重要课题。目的:探讨骨水泥分布对单侧经皮椎体成形术后疗效的影响,以提供有效的预防和治疗措施,防止术后椎体再次骨折。方法:选择2018年1月至2022年12月在新疆医科大学第六附属医院行单侧经皮椎体成形治疗的193例患者,根据术后骨水泥分布分为Ⅰ组(骨水泥不接触上端和远端端板,n=59)、Ⅱ组(骨水泥只接触上端板或只接触下端板,n=80)和Ⅲ组(骨水泥同时接触上端和远端端板,n=54)。对比3组患者的基本资料,手术相关指标包括手术时间、总住院费用、术后住院时间、骨水泥注射量、腰痛目测类比评分及Oswestry功能障碍指数、术后椎体高度恢复率、椎体局部后凸角、损伤椎体及邻近椎体再骨折发生率等,记录所有患者的随访结果。结果与结论:(1)Ⅲ组患者术后1年腰痛目测类比评分和Oswestry功能障碍指数明显低于Ⅰ组和Ⅱ组,差异有显著性意义(P <0.05);(2)Ⅰ组和Ⅱ组损伤椎体再次骨折发生率、总椎体骨折发生率高于Ⅲ组,差异均有显著性意义(P <0.05);(3)3组患者其余指标,包括骨水泥渗漏、腰痛术后1周、术后1个月和末次Oswestry功能障碍指数及目测类比评分、术后椎体高度恢复率、椎体局部凸角、手术时间、总住院费用及术后住院时间等指标均无显著性差异(P> 0.05);(4)提示与骨水泥不接触上端和远端端板组和骨水泥只接触上端板或只接触下端板组相比,骨水泥同时接触上端和远端端板组患者可获得更好的长期预后,而且骨水泥同时接触上端和远端端板能够明显降低损伤椎体及总椎体骨折发生率,医生术中应充分掌握骨水泥的弥散情况,并制定有针对性的预防和治疗策略,从而有助于减少未来再发生骨折的风险。

Evaluating the stability and volumetric flowback rate of proppant packs in hydraulic fractures using the lattice Boltzmann-discrete element coupling method

The stability and mobility of proppant packs in hydraulic fractures during hydrocarbon production are numerically investigated by the lattice Boltzmann-discrete element coupling method(LB-DEM).This study starts with a preliminary proppant settling test,from which a solid volume fraction of 0.575 is calibrated for the proppant pack in the fracture.In the established workflow to investigate proppant flowback,a displacement is applied to the fracture surfaces to compact the generated proppant pack as well as further mimicking proppant embedment under closure stress.When a pressure gradient is applied to drive the fluid-particle flow,a critical aperture-to-diameter ratio of 4 is observed,above which the proppant pack would collapse.The results also show that the volumetric proppant flowback rate increases quadratically with the fracture aperture,while a linear variation between the particle flux and the pressure gradient is exhibited for a fixed fracture aperture.The research outcome contributes towards an improved understanding of proppant flowback in hydraulic fractures,which also supports an optimised proppant size selection for hydraulic fracturing operations.

肌肉负荷对股骨干骨折早期愈合生物力学影响的有限元分析

背景:以往的研究多通过忽略肌肉负荷和采用简化股骨负荷的方式,进行骨折早期愈合的生物力学分析。然而,肌肉负荷对骨折早期愈合产生的生物力学影响尚不清楚。目的:构建不同的股骨负荷模型,研究肌肉负荷对骨折愈合的生物力学影响,帮助临床医生更好地理解骨折愈合的生物力学过程,优化治疗方案。方法:利用AnyBody Modeling System软件构建个性化的人体肌肉骨骼系统,通过仿真分析以获取体内的肌肉骨骼负荷模型。该模型和采用改进简化负荷方法、简化负荷方法构建的股骨负荷模型,分别作为有限元输入的边界条件,对站立状态下锁定加压钢板应力应变、骨折块应变进行分析。结果与结论:(1)与简化负荷方法相比,肌肉骨骼方法得到的锁定加压钢板应力、应变和骨折块应变分别小了31.9%;38.9%和19.5%;(2)肌肉骨骼方法与改进简化负荷方法对比发现,忽略肌肉负荷则会造成锁定加压钢板的应力、应变和骨折块应变分别高估16.8%,14.3%和19.5%,肌肉负荷对骨折块的剪切运动大小无明显影响,而对运动方向有明显的影响;(3)结果表明,简化股骨负荷和忽略肌肉负荷的方法与肌骨骨骼负荷情况存在一定的偏差,因此,在研究骨折愈合时需考虑肌肉负荷的生物力学影响。

Comparative efficacy of proximal femoral nail vs dynamic condylar screw in treating unstable intertrochanteric fractures

BACKGROUND Among the most frequent hip fractures are trochanteric fractures,which usually occur from low-energy trauma like minor falls,especially in older people with osteoporotic bones.AIM To evaluate the treatment efficacy of dynamic condylar screws(DCS)and proximal femoral nails(PFN)for unstable intertrochanteric fractures.METHODS To find pertinent randomized controlled trials and retrospective observational studies comparing PFN with DCS for the management of unstable femoral intertrochanteric fractures,a thorough search was carried out.For research studies published between January 1996 and April 2024,PubMed,EMBASE,Scopus,Web of Science,Cochrane Library,and Google Scholar were all searched.The complete texts of the papers were retrieved,vetted,and independently examined by two investigators.Disputes were settled by consensus,and any disagreements that persisted were arbitrated by a third author.RESULTS This study included six articles,comprising a total of 173 patients.Compared to the DCS,the PFN had a shorter operation time[mean difference(MD):-41.7 min,95%confidence interval(95%CI):-63.04 to-20.35,P=0.0001],higher success rates with closed reduction techniques[risk ratio(RR):34.05,95%CI:11.12-104.31,P<0.00001],and required less intraoperative blood transfusion(MD:-1.4 units,95%CI:-1.80 to-1.00,P<0.00001).Additionally,the PFN showed shorter fracture union time(MD:-6.92 wk,95%CI:-10.27 to-3.57,P<0.0001)and a lower incidence of reoperation(RR:0.37,95%CI:0.17-0.82,P=0.01).However,there was no discernible variation regarding hospital stay,implant-related complications,and infections.CONCLUSION Compared to DCS,PFN offers shorter operative times,reduces the blood transfusions requirements,achieves higher closed reduction success,enables faster fracture healing,and lowers reoperation incidence.

背景:巨噬细胞存在特殊的促炎/抗炎表型,通过组织工程技术调节表型转变,使得其成为了在骨损伤修复中研究最多的免疫细胞。最近的研究发现中性粒细胞在骨损伤修复过程中同样发挥重要作用,但目前尚无此类综述。目的:总结目前中性粒细胞在骨折愈合中的作用方式,以及干预中性粒细胞促进骨折愈合的治疗措施。方法:检索2000年1月至2024年2月Web of Science、PubMed、中国知网及万方数据库,中文检索词为“中性粒细胞、骨折愈合、骨损伤、骨修复、骨重建”,英文检索词为“neutrophil,fracture healing,bone damage,bone repair,bone remodeling”。通过纳入排除标准筛选文献,最终纳入72篇进行综述。结果与结论:①发现中性粒细胞的历史漫长,早期由于缺乏染色技术忽视了其重要性,1900年Paul Ehrlich发明三酸染料区别出中性粒细胞,开启了研究的序幕;②正常状态下,中性粒细胞迁移到各器官辅助其发挥生理功能;病理状态下,中性粒细胞依赖吞噬作用、脱颗粒及中性粒细胞胞外陷阱发挥抗菌作用;③中性粒细胞主要参与骨折愈合早期血肿炎症阶段,通过释放细胞因子募集其他免疫细胞及间充质干细胞,同时产生纤连蛋白促进血肿形成构建局部微环境;④中性粒细胞在骨折愈合的不同阶段转化为N1/N2两种不同亚型,两者相互协调促进骨修复;⑤骨折断端募集的中性粒细胞通过分泌肿瘤坏死因子α、白细胞介素6、白细胞介素10、成纤维细胞生长因子2、单核细胞趋化蛋白1、血小板源性生长因子等细胞因子参与骨折愈合的过程;⑥中性粒细胞通过与骨折愈合不同阶段主要细胞成分的相互作用,调节成骨/破骨平衡;⑦类似于组织工程技术调节巨噬细胞极化在骨折愈合中的广泛研究与应用,未来针对干预中性粒细胞促进骨折愈合的疗法具有广阔前景。

支架外固定与钢板内固定治疗桡骨远端粉碎性骨折的Meta分析

目的:外固定支架和钢板内固定作为桡骨远端粉碎性骨折的常用治疗方法,在临床上各有利弊。系统评价外固定支架与钢板内固定治疗粉碎性桡骨远端骨折的临床疗效及安全性,为桡骨远端骨折中西医结合诊疗指南研制提供论证依据。方法:系统检索PubMed、Web of Science、Embase、Cochrane Library、中国知网、中国生物医学文献数据库、维普和万方数据库,纳入2013年10月至2023年10月发表的关于外固定支架和钢板内固定治疗粉碎性桡骨远端骨折的随机对照试验文献,按照纳入标准和排除标准筛选文献,使用Review Manager进行文献质量评价和Meta分析。结果:(1)纳入8篇文献,其中中文文献4篇,英文文献4篇、总样本量648例,外固定支架组328例,钢板内固定组320例;(2)术后3个月,钢板内固定组的背伸、掌屈、旋后范围优于外固定支架组;术后12个月,钢板内固定组的握力、掌倾角、掌屈、旋前和旋后范围优于外固定支架组;钢板内固定组在术后感染方面优于外固定支架组,其余结局指标两组差异均无显著性意义。结论:现有8项证据表明,在粉碎性桡骨远端骨折的治疗方式选择上,外固定支架与切开钢板内固定都有良好的治疗效果,综合其他因素钢板内固定更胜一筹,但是对于一些高度严重的粉碎性桡骨远端骨折、骨质较差、严重污染的开放性骨折以及软组织肿胀而无法进行切开手术的特殊患者,外固定支架才是首选。此次研究结果具有局限性,未来还需要开展更多高质量、大样本、多中心的随机对照试验研究,另外需重视远期疗效、其他次要指标的观察,补充优化当前研究结果。

踝关节骨折术后踝穴冠状位角度波动与关节功能恢复的关系

背景:踝关节骨折术后的踝穴形态指标会出现相应变化,而其中踝穴冠状位角度变化与踝关节的功能恢复之间存在一定的关联,既往研究大多探讨患者术后踝穴高度恢复,故研究踝关节骨折术后踝穴冠状位角度的波动与关节功能恢复的相关性具有一定参考意义。目的:探讨踝关节骨折术后踝穴冠状位角度变化对关节功能恢复的影响。方法:纳入进行手术治疗的86例踝关节骨折患者为研究对象,根据末次随访美国骨科足踝外科协会踝-后足评分结果分为优良组(n=45)和可差组(n=41),比较两组患者的一般资料。根据踝关节的踝穴位及侧位X射线片对比术后患者患侧和健侧的踝穴形态指标:包括踝穴宽度和深度、冠状位角度及矢状位角度,以及上述指标患侧和健侧之间的差值,并进一步进行组内比较分析。构建联合模型,利用Cox回归分析评估冠状位角度波动与关节功能恢复情况的关系。利用最小绝对收缩选择算子回归法和多因素Logistic回归分析影响患者关节功能恢复的危险因素。按踝穴冠状位角度从低到高等分为5分位数组(Q1-Q5),比较5组患者的临床资料特征,并采用多因素Logistic回归分析踝穴冠状位角度变化与关节功能恢复不良风险的相关性,建立限制性立方样条Logistic回归模型分析其剂量-反应关系。建立回归方程y=1-1/(1+e^(-z))预测模型并进行验证。结果与结论:①患者患侧的踝穴宽度和深度、冠状位角度及矢状位角度均显著大于健侧(P均<0.05);且与优良组患者相比,可差组患者踝穴宽度差值、深度差值、冠状位角度差值及矢状位角度差值均更大(P<0.05);②联合模型显示无论冠状位角度是否在正常范围内,冠状位角度每纵向增加1˚,关节功能恢复不良的风险增加3%;③最小绝对收缩选择算子回归和多因素Logistics回归分析显示,调整潜在混杂因素后发现年龄过大、早期功能锻炼缺乏、无跟骨牵引、内固定物未取出、术后并发症、踝冠状位角度增大均为影响患者关节功能恢复的独立危险因素(P<0.05);④术后3个月内的冠状位角度与关节功能恢复效果不良风险存在独立相关性(OR=1.57,95%CI:1.38-1.76,P=0.002),且术后各时间段冠状位角度从低到高5分位数组趋势性检验差异有统计学意义(P趋势<0.001);⑤限制性立方样条模型分析显示,男性或女性的踝穴冠状位角度变化与关节功能恢复效果不良风险均不存在非线性关系;经Bootstrap自抽样,预测模型区分度、准确度较好;⑥提示踝关节骨折术后踝穴冠状位角度减小对关节功能恢复起到明显的促进作用,因此在踝关节骨折术后重点检测踝穴冠状位角度有助于了解患者关节功能恢复情况。
