Hip fracture in the elderly is a disease with a high mortality rate and a high complication rate. Its main treatment method is surgery. The concept of enhanced recovery after surgery runs through the perioperative period of elderly patients with hip fracture. Elderly patients with hip fracture should be scheduled for surgery as soon as possible after admission to enhance postoperative functional recovery. Preoperative ambulation and postoperative exercise can reduce postoperative complications and mortality, shorten the length of hospital stay, and promote functional recovery.
ObjectiveTo review the research progress of the role of seed cells and related cytokines in angiogenesis of the vascularized tissue engineered bone. MethodsThe latest literature of tissue engineered bone angiogenesis was reviewed, including the common source of seed cells, biological characteristics, transformation mechanism, related cytokines, and signaling pathways in re-vascularization. ResultsMicrosurgery technique, genetic technique, and co-culture system of vascularized tissue engineered bone have developed to a new level. Moreover, both the induction of introduced pluripotent stem cells and vascular endothelial growth factor-angiopoietins 1 transfected mesenchymal stem cells and endothelial progenitor cells have some advantages for bone regeneration and vascularization. However, all the techniques were not used in clinical practice. ConclusionUsing techniques of genetically modified seed cells, related cytokines, and scaffolds may have bright prospects for building vascularized tissue engineered bone.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of early preoperative mobilization on the rehabilitation of the elderly patients with hip fractures after operation.MethodsThe clinical data of 16 elderly patients with hip fractures between February 2017 and April 2018 who met the selection criteria was retrospectively analyzed. There were 8 males and 8 females, with an average age of 80.3 years (range, 69-90 years). There were 8 cases of intertrochanteric fracture and 8 cases of femoral neck fracture. The preoperative American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) scored 2.94±0.43. There were 3 cases of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, 6 cases of essential hypertension, 5 cases of respiratory diseases, 3 cases of diabetes, and 2 cases of other system diseases. The time from injury to admission was 4 hours to 14 days with an average of 39.5 hours. On the day of admission or on the first day after admission, the patient started to exercise on the floor underwent analgesia treatment. And the patients were treated with closed reduction (9 cases) or artificial hip arthroplasty (7 cases). The time from admission to operation was 4 to 25 days, with an average of 7.4 days. At the time of admission, after the first ground movement before operation, on the second day after operation, and at last follow-up, the Barthel Index was used to assess the patients’ self-care ability, and Barthel effectiveness (BE) was calculated. The complications were observed and recorded during follow-up.ResultsAll 16 patients underwent operation successfully. The hospital stay was 8 to 24 days, with an average of 14.1 days. All patients were followed up 2.5-16.0 months with an average of 6.5 months. One patient developed postoperative pulmonary infection; the remaining patients had no surgical-related complications. No patient died during the follow-up. The Barthel Index scored 30.63±5.56 at admission, 53.13±9.50 after the first ground movement before operation, 60.63±6.09 on the second day after operation, and 96.25±4.84 at last follow-up. There were significant differences in Barthel Index scores between different time points (P<0.05). The BE was 0.23±0.06 after the first ground movement before operation, 0.30±0.04 on the second day after operation, and 0.66±0.06 at last follow-up. There were significant differences in BE between different time points (P<0.05).ConclusionFor elderly patients with hip fractures who have long waiting time before operation, early preoperative mobilization has a positive impact on patients’ activities of daily living.
ObjectivesTo systematically review the safety and efficacy of intraoperative local application of platelet-rich plasma in patients with femoral neck fracture.MethodsDatabases including The Cochrane Library, PubMed, Web of Science, WanFang Data, CBM, EMbase and CNKI were searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on operation versus operation combined with platelet-rich plasma for patients with femoral neck fracture from inception to April 30th, 2017. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed risk of bias of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed by RevMan 5.3 software.ResultsA total of 8 RCTs, including 916 patients with femoral neck fracture were enrolled in the analysis. The results of meta-analysis showed that compared with the group of internal fixation, the group of internal fixation combined with platelet-rich plasma could significantly shorten healing duration of fracture (MD=?2.18, 95%CI ?3.37 to ?0.99, P=0.000 3), improve the fracture healing rate (RR=1.14, 95%CI 1.03 to 1.25, P<0.000 01) and hip function score (MD=10.18, 95%CI 5.99 to 14.37, P<0.000 01), and effectively reduce the femoral head necrosis rate after operation (RR=0.35, 95%CI 0.22 to 0.57, P<0.000 1).ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that the method of internal fixation combined with platelet-rich plasma could effectively shorten healing duration, improve healing rate and hip function score, and reduce the rate of femoral head necrosis. Due to the limited quality of the included studies, more large scale, high-quality studies are required to verify the above conclusion.
Objective To review the application of urine derived stem cells (USCs) in regeneration of musculoskeletal system. Methods The original literature about USCs in the regeneration of musculoskeletal system was extensively reviewed and analyzed. Results The source of USCs is noninvasive and extensive. USCs express MSCs surface markers with stable proliferative and multi-directional differentiation capabilities, and are widely used in bone, skin, nerve, and other skeletal and muscle system regeneration fields and show a certain repair capacity. Conclusion USCs from non-invasive sources have a wide application prospect in the regeneration of musculoskeletal system, but the definite biological mechanism of its repair needs further study.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a platelet-rich plasma protein concentrate extracted from autologous peripheral blood, which contains a variety of blood-derived growth factors and cytokines. As an autologous blood product, PRP is widely used in many fields such as tissue repair and regeneration because of its minimally invasive process, simple preparation process and good biological properties. The acquisition of PRP is mainly achieved by collecting peripheral blood through density gradient centrifugation. Various growth factors and cytokines in PRP can repair various tissues. With the deepening of PRP research, it is now gradually applied to rotator cuff injury, lateral epicondylitis of humerus, carpal tunnel syndrome, knee joint injury, gluteal muscle tendinopathy, achilles tendinopathy, plantar fasciitis, and other soft tissue injuries, and some progress has been made. This article reviews the progress on clinical applications of PRP in chronic soft tissue injuries to provide a theoretical basis.
Titanium and its alloys have become one of the most widely used implant materials in orthopedics because of their excellent mechanical properties and biocompatibility. Implant-associated infection is the main reason of failure of orthopedic implant surgery. The anti-infection modification of implant surface has received more attention in the field of infection prevention and developed rapidly. This article focuses on the current research status of simple anti-infection surface modifications that make titanium implants possess anti-adhesion, bactericidal activity or antibacterial membrane activity, as well as the research progress of composite functional surface modifications that promote bone integration, osteogenesis or immunomodulatory effects on the basis of anti-infection, so as to provide references for the construction of orthopedic implants with composite functions.
