Mixed Reality Combined with Three‐Dimensional Printing Technology in Total Hip Arthroplasty: An Updated Review with a Preliminary Case Presentation

Three‐dimensional (3D) printing technology, virtual reality, and augmented reality technology have been used to help surgeons to complete complex total hip arthroplasty, while their respective shortcomings limit their further application. With the development of technology, mixed reality (MR) technology has been applied to improve the success rate of complicated hip arthroplasty because of its unique advantages. We presented a case of a 59‐year‐old man with an intertrochanteric fracture in the left femur, who had received a prior left hip fusion. After admission to our hospital, a left total hip arthroplasty was performed on the patient using a combination of MR technology and 3D printing technology. Before surgery, 3D reconstruction of a certain bony landmark exposed in the surgical area was first performed. Then a veneer part was designed according to the bony landmark and connected to a reference registration landmark outside the body through a connecting rod. After that, the series of parts were made into a holistic reference registration instrument using 3D printing technology, and the patient's data for bone and surrounding tissue, along with digital 3D information of the reference registration instrument, were imported into the head‐mounted display (HMD). During the operation, the disinfected reference registration instrument was installed on the selected bony landmark, and then the automatic real‐time registration was realized by HMD through recognizing the registration landmark on the reference registration instrument, whereby the patient's virtual bone and other anatomical structures were quickly and accurately superimposed on the real body of the patient. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report to use MR combined with 3D printing technology in total hip arthroplasty.     

腹腔镜胆囊切除术对胆道结石合并糖尿病患者肠屏障功能的影响

目的观察胆道结石合并糖尿病患者腹腔镜胆囊切除术(LC)后肠屏障功能的变化。方法将择期行LC的126例患者分为糖尿病组41例和非糖尿病组85例。术前及术后第1、3天,采用高效液相色谱法检测尿乳果糖与甘露醇比值(L/M),并采用酶联免疫吸附法(ELISA)检测尿脂肪酸结合蛋白(IFABP)及血清D-乳酸水平。结果2组患者均成功完成手术,无中转开放手术者。糖尿病组术后肛门排气时间长于非糖尿病组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。糖尿病组术后第1、3天尿L/M、血清D-乳酸、尿IFABP均高于术前及非糖尿病组,差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论合并糖尿病的胆道结石患者行LC后会加重肠屏障功能障碍程度,术前控制好血糖水平或可降低肠道功能损伤的严重程度。     

试论异常毒性作为药品质量控制指标的合理性

异常毒性最初是一种确保复杂成分制剂生产工艺一致性及安全性的辅助检测手段，后来成为针对外源性毒性污染物的通用安全性检测项，曾在世界范围内被各国药典收载。由于该检测与药品质量、安全性之间的关联性受到质疑，各国药典逐渐在各论及通则中删除该检测项，目前仅《中国药典》保留异常毒性。由于该检测存在设定限值难以统一、给药体积及给药剂量不合理、结果易受干扰且缺乏明确的判定标准等试验原理及设计上的缺陷，导致其试验结果没有实际参考意义。基于对历史数据的回顾分析，国际监管机构及卫生组织对异常毒性有了更为科学的认知，并已逐渐形成统一的监管共识：严格的生产控制措施和有效的质量检测手段，比异常毒性检测更为重要；异常毒性检测结果或与产品质量及污染不具相关性；在异常毒性检查中使用大量动物不符合动物福利和“3R”原则。本文从科学角度试论异常毒性作为药品质量控制指标的合理性，并总结异常毒性修订的科学原则，希望能为我国监管机构、制药行业修订异常毒性相关内容提供思考角度。     

Exact confidence intervals for the average causal effect on a binary outcome

Based on the physical randomization of completely randomized experiments, in a recent article in Statistics in Medicine, Rigdon and Hudgens propose two approaches to obtaining exact confidence intervals for the average causal effect on a binary outcome. They construct the first confidence interval by combining, with the Bonferroni adjustment, the prediction sets for treatment effects among treatment and control groups, and the second one by inverting a series of randomization tests. With sample size n, their second approach requires performing O(n⁴)randomization tests. We demonstrate that the physical randomization also justifies other ways to constructing exact confidence intervals that are more computationally efficient. By exploiting recent advances in hypergeometric confidence intervals and the stochastic order information of randomization tests, we propose approaches that either do not need to invoke Monte Carlo or require performing at most O(n²)randomization tests. We provide technical details and R code in the Supporting Information . Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

谷氨酰胺联合规范化早期肠内营养治疗对急性重症胰腺炎患者的疗效分析

目的探讨谷氨酰胺联合规范化早期肠内营养治疗对急性重症胰腺炎(SAP)患者的临床疗效。方法将我院2014年1月至2015年12月收治的96例SAP患者随机分为观察组与对照组,每组各48例。对照组患者采用全肠外营养(TPN)支持治疗,观察组采用谷氨酰胺联合规范化早期肠内营养治疗。分析比较两组的临床疗效。结果治疗第9 d后两组APACHEⅡ评分、TBIL、ALT、AST、BUN、Scr以及Hs-CRP、TNF-α、IL-1β、IL-6、IL-8水平均显著降低,IL-10水平显著升高,且观察组以上指标改善水平显著优于对照组,P<0.001。观察组患者住院时间、死亡率及感染率均显著低于对照组,P<0.05。结论谷氨酰胺联合规范化早期肠内营养治疗有助于改善SAP患者的氨基酸代谢情况,缓解负氮平衡,改善全身炎症状况,缩短住院时间,降低感染率及死亡率。     

中医药对淋巴管新生与回流功能的作用研究进展＊

淋巴管作为循环系统的重要组成部分之一，具有调节机体体液稳态，协助免疫监视和肠道脂质吸收等重要作用。淋巴管新生是机体生理和病理过程中维持脉管系统结构和功能正常的重要手段，淋巴管新生调控对于防治肿瘤、心血管等诸多疾病有着潜在的临床转化意义；淋巴回流功能则与关节炎症等疾病发病机制关系密切。在循环系统中，相较于中医药调控血管相关疾病的发病机制已取得很大进展，近年来对于淋巴管的研究则明显相对滞后。本文从中医药作用于淋巴管新生及回流功能角度对这一领域的研究进展作一综述，以期为临床上中医药治疗相关疾病提供新的思路与方法。

关节滑液检测在关节假体周围感染诊断中的研究进展

关节假体周围感染(periprosthetic joint infection,PJI)是人工关节置换术后可能发生的一种严重并发症,其导致的严重后果,无论对于医生还是患者来说,都很难接受。目前,由于多种不确定因素的存在,PJI诊断的准确性较低。传统的血清学检查、影像学检查有一定的价值,但是易受全身情况的影响,导致特异性不高。为了正确诊断关节假体周围感染,不同学科的研究人员采用各种不同的方法进行了大量的诊断研究,并取得了丰富的成果。近年来,关节滑液炎性标志物检测、分子生物学方法等被研究证实具有较高的敏感性和特异性。因此,关节滑液CRP、-防御素、白细胞酯酶、PCR技术等被广泛研究,期望能从中找到诊断关节假体周围感染的特异性指标,提高临床诊断的准确性。
