  • Comparison of early effectiveness between different approaches in primary total hip arthroplasty

    Objective To compare the early effectiveness between by anterior approach via Bikini incision and by OCM approach in the primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methods Between June 2015 and March 2016, 60 patients with ischemic necrosis of the femoral head who accorded with the inclusion criteria were chosen in the study, who were divided into 2 groups according to different surgical approaches. THA was performed on 30 patients by anterior approach via Bikini incision (group A), and on 30 patients by OCM approach (group B). There was no significant difference in age, gender, body mass index, side of affected hip, Steinberg stage of ischemic necrosis of femoral head, preoperative hemoglobin, preoperative Harris score, and preoperative visual analogue scale (VAS) between 2 groups (P>0.05). The operation time, length of incision, intraoperative blood loss, transfusion rate, starting time of straight leg raising exercise, starting time of active abduction of hip, hospitalization time, the incidence of limb length discrepancy, postoperative Harris score and VAS score were recorded and compared between 2 groups. Anteroposterior pelvic X-ray films were taken to measure acetabular abduction and acetabular anteversion. Results Primary healing of incision was obtained in all patients of 2 groups, and there was no significant difference in complication between 2 groups (χ2=0.144,P=0.704). All the patients of 2 groups were followed up 3 to 12 months, averaged 6 months. There was no significant difference in operation time, length of incision, intraoperative blood loss, transfusion rate, hospitalization time, and starting time of straight leg raising exercise between 2 groups (P>0.05). Group A was significantly shorter than group B in starting time of active abduction of hip (t=–4.591,P=0.000), and was significantly lower than group B in the incidence of limb length discrepancy (χ2=5.455,P=0.020). After operation, neither Harris score at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months nor VSA score at 24 hours and 6 weeks showed significant difference between 2 groups (P>0.05). The anteroposterior pelvic X-ray films showed that all the prostheses were in good position, and there was no femoral prosthesis subsidence, acetabular cup displacement or dislocation. No significant difference was found in acetabular abduction and acetabular anteversion at 2 days after operation between 2 groups (t=0.887,P=0.379;t=0.652,P=0.517). Conclusion Both of two approaches in THA can avoid muscle damage and achieve favorable short-term effectiveness. But, anterior approach via Bikini incision is superior to OCM approach in starting time of active abduction of hip and the incidence of limb length discrepancy.

  • An antennal electric signal detection system based on template matching

    As the most efficient perception system in nature, the perception mechanism of the insect (such as honeybee) antennae is the key to imitating the high-performance sensor technology. An automated experimental device suitable for collecting electrical signals (including antenna reaction time information) of antennae was developed, in response to the problems of the non-standardized experimental process, interference of manual operation, and low efficiency in the study of antenna perception mechanism. Firstly, aiming at the automatic identification and location of insect heads in experiments, the image templates of insect head contour features were established. Insect heads were template-matched based on the Hausdorff method. Then, for the angle deviation of the insect heads relative to the standard detection position, a method that calculates the angle of the insect head mid-axis based on the minimum external rectangle of the long axis was proposed. Eventually, the electrical signals generated by the antennae in contact with the reagents were collected by the electrical signal acquisition device. Honeybees were used as the research object in this study. The experimental results showed that the accuracy of template matching could reach 95.3% to locate the bee head quickly, and the deviation angle of the bee head was less than 1°. The distance between antennae and experimental reagents could meet the requirements of antennae perception experiments. The parameters, such as the contact reaction time of honeybee antennae to sucrose solution, were consistent with the results of the manual experiment. The system collects effectively antenna contact signals in an undisturbed state and realizes the standardization of experiments on antenna perception mechanisms, which provides an experimental method and device for studying and analyzing the reaction time of the antenna involved in biological antenna perception mechanisms.

  • Clinical characteristics and influencing factors of lower respiratory tract infection of Acinetobacter baumannii in respiratory intensive care unit

    ObjectiveTo investigate clinical characteristics and influencing factors of lower respiratory tract infection of Acinetobacter baumannii (AB-LRTI) in respiratory intensive care unit (RICU).MethodsClinical data were collected from 204 RICU patients who were isolated Acinetobacter baumannii (AB). The bacteriological specimens were derived from sputum, bronchoscopic endotracheal aspiration, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, pleural effusion and blood. The definition of bacterial colonization was based on the responsible criteria from Centers for Disease Control and Prevention/National Medical Safety Network (CDC/NHSN). The patients were divided into three groups as follows, AB colonization group (only AB was isolated, n=40); simple AB-LRTI group (only AB was isolated and defined as infection, n=63), AB with another bacteria LRTI group (AB and another pathogen were isolated simultaneously, n=101). The epidemiology, clinical characteristics and influencing factors of each group were analyzed and compared. ResultsCompared with the AB colonization group, the AB with another bacteria LRTI group had higher proportion of patients with immunosuppression, specimens from sputum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, more than 4 invasive procedures, 90-day mortality, white blood cell count >10×109/L (or <4×109/L), neutrophil percent >75% (or <40%), lymphocyte count <1.1×109/L, platelet count <100×109/L, albumin <30 g/L, high sensitivity C-reactive protein >10 mg/L, and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR). The frequency of bronchoscopy and days of infusing carbapenem within 90 days before isolating AB, the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ score, the proportion of patients with invasive mechanical ventilation and the duration of invasive mechanical ventilation in the AB with another pathogen LRTI group were higher than those in the AB colonization group (all P<0.05). Days of infusing carbapenem and β-lactams/β-lactamase inhibitors within 90 days before isolating AB, proportion of septic shock, NLR and 90-day mortality of the patients from the AB with another pathogen LRTI group were more than those in the simple AB-LRTI group (all P<0.05). After regression analysis, more than 4 invasive procedures, or immunosuppression, or with more days of infusing carbapenem within 90 days before isolating AB were all the independent risk factors for AB-LRTI.ConclusionsThere are significant differences in epidemiology, clinical symptoms and laboratory indicators between simple AB-LRTI, AB with another pathogen LRTI and AB colonization in RICU patients. For RICU patients, who suffered more than 4 invasive procedures, immunosuppression, or with more days of infusing carbapenem within 90 days before isolating AB, are more susceptible to AB-LRTI.
