Project description:We aimed to analyze the associations of bone mineral density (BMD) of femoral heads, age and gender, and compare the differences in BMD between fracture side and non-fracture side by "3D Spine Exam Analysis" module in QCT Pro software. In this study, we identified patients who had undergone quantitative computed tomography (QCT) examinations between March 2016 and July 2018 and measured their trabecular volumetric BMD (vBMD) of femoral heads. This retrospective study enrolled 367 subjects. A total of 149 participants with images were randomly selected to verify the repeatability of this method. The relationship among the vBMD, age and gender was analyzed (n?=?367), and the difference of vBMD between non-fracture side and fracture side were studied in subjects (n?=?75) with low-energy hip fracture on one side and compared the image quality of bilateral hip joints. The intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) between the results measured by 2 operators and the results measured by the same operator showed excellent agreement (ICCs?>?0.9). Multivariate regression equation of vBMD of femoral head, age and gender showed statistical significance (P?<?0.05). vBMD showed negative correlation with age (P?<?0.05), and showed no statistically significant relation with gender (P?>?0.05). vBMD of non-fracture side was higher than that of fracture side, but the difference was statistically significant only at the middle layer (Pmiddle?<?0.05). In conclusions, the vBMD of femoral head as measured by "3D Spine Exam Analysis" module in QCT Pro software showed good repeatability. The trabecular vBMD of femoral head was negatively correlated with age, and not related with gender. The vBMD of femoral head was higher on non-fracture side than that on the fracture side.

Project description:BackgroundThe absolute number of femoral neck fractures (FNFs) is increasing; however, the prediction of traumatic femoral head necrosis remains difficult. Machine learning algorithms have the potential to be superior to traditional prediction methods for the prediction of traumatic femoral head necrosis.ObjectiveThe aim of this study is to use machine learning to construct a model for the analysis of risk factors and prediction of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) in patients with FNF after internal fixation.MethodsWe retrospectively collected preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative clinical data of patients with FNF in 4 hospitals in Shanghai and followed up the patients for more than 2.5 years. A total of 259 patients with 43 variables were included in the study. The data were randomly divided into a training set (181/259, 69.8%) and a validation set (78/259, 30.1%). External data (n=376) were obtained from a retrospective cohort study of patients with FNF in 3 other hospitals. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression and the support vector machine algorithm were used for variable selection. Logistic regression, random forest, support vector machine, and eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) were used to develop the model on the training set. The validation set was used to tune the model hyperparameters to determine the final prediction model, and the external data were used to compare and evaluate the model performance. We compared the accuracy, discrimination, and calibration of the models to identify the best machine learning algorithm for predicting ONFH. Shapley additive explanations and local interpretable model-agnostic explanations were used to determine the interpretability of the black box model.ResultsA total of 11 variables were selected for the models. The XGBoost model performed best on the validation set and external data. The accuracy, sensitivity, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the model on the validation set were 0.987, 0.929, and 0.992, respectively. The accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the model on the external data were 0.907, 0.807, 0.935, and 0.933, respectively, and the log-loss was 0.279. The calibration curve demonstrated good agreement between the predicted probability and actual risk. The interpretability of the features and individual predictions were realized using the Shapley additive explanations and local interpretable model-agnostic explanations algorithms. In addition, the XGBoost model was translated into a self-made web-based risk calculator to estimate an individual's probability of ONFH.ConclusionsMachine learning performs well in predicting ONFH after internal fixation of FNF. The 6-variable XGBoost model predicted the risk of ONFH well and had good generalization ability on the external data, which can be used for the clinical prediction of ONFH after internal fixation of FNF.

Project description:Femoral head fractures after posterior dislocation of the hip are uncommon and are conventionally treated by an open method. Hip arthroscopy can be a valuable treatment option for the management of femoral head fractures. Arthroscopy allows for a less invasive option when compared with arthrotomy and can allow faster recovery with minimal soft-tissue injury. We describe the arthroscopic reduction and internal fixation of Pipkin type I femoral head fractures with a detailed stepwise description of the surgical technique, including technical pearls and pitfalls, potential complications, and advantages and disadvantages.

Project description:Atypical femoral fractures (AFFs) occurring during the course of osteoporosis treatment usually lead to discontinuation of anti-resorptive (AR) drugs. However, the risk of fracture after an AFF is unknown. We conducted a follow-up study of patients with AFF matched 1:3 for age and gender with patients with a peripheral major osteoporotic fracture (pMOF), in the setting of a fracture liaison service, to investigate the incidence of subsequent low-trauma fractures. Fifty-five patients with AFF (95% women, age [mean ± standard deviation] 75 ± 10 years, 89% exposed to AR drugs), followed for 6.2 ± 3.7 years, were compared to 165 matched controls with a pMOF (hip 85%) followed for 4.3 ± 2.6 years. During the follow-up, 38% of patients in the AFF group and 16% in the pMOF group received AR therapies. Continuation of AR drugs after an AFF was associated with contralateral AFF in 27% of subjects. The risks of new low-trauma, major osteoporotic and imminent (within 2 years) fractures, were similar between the two groups: incidence rate ratio (95% confidence interval [CI]) of subsequent fracture following AFF relative to pMOF, 1.30 (95% CI, 0.82-2.04), 1.28 (95% CI, 0.74-2.15), and 1.11 (95% CI, 0.54-2.15), respectively. Moreover, the risk of sustaining multiple fractures per participant was significantly increased among patients with AFF compared to pMOF (hazard ratio 1.48 [95% CI, 1.00-2.19]; p = 0.049). When taking mortality into account, the risk of subsequent fractures tended to be higher in the AFF group (sub-hazard ratio 1.42 [95% CI, 0.95-2.12]). In conclusion, patients who sustained an AFF are at high risk of subsequent fragility fractures, at least equal or even greater to the risk observed after a pMOF. However, continuation of AR drugs increases the risk of contralateral AFF. Therefore, optimal modalities for secondary fracture prevention after AFF require further evaluation. © 2021 The Authors.

Project description:BackgroundInternal fixation (IF) has historically been favored for the treatment of femoral neck fractures (FNFs) in young, nongeriatric patients. However, recent literature reporting high reoperation rates among those receiving IF, taken in conjunction with favorable survivorship of modern bearing surfaces in total hip arthroplasty (THA), has begun to question this paradigm. Our study sought to compare outcomes between IF and THA for FNFs in patients aged 40-59 years.MethodsUsing the Truven MarketScan Database, we performed a retrospective propensity-score-matched cohort study on patients aged 40-59 years who underwent surgical management of an isolated FNF (THA or IF). Patients with pathologic fracture were not included. Analysis was conducted on patients aged 40-49 and 50-59 years separately. A subgroup analysis was performed on those patients with 1 year and 3 years of follow-up. Multivariate analysis, controlling for baseline patient information, was then performed.ResultsSeven hundred sevety-eight 40- to 49-year-old patients and 3470 50- to 59-year-old matched patients (IF and THA) were included in this study. A multivariate analysis found that patients aged 40-49 years who underwent IF were at higher odds of both 1-year (odds ratio 2.35, 95% confidence interval 1.22-4.54, P = .011) and 3-year (odds ratio 5.68, 95% confidence interval 2.21-14.60, P < .001) reoperation. Similar results were found in those aged 50-59 years. While complication rates were similar, postoperative anemia and 90-day visits to the emergency room were more common after THA in both age cohorts.ConclusionsWhile THA is associated with increased postoperative anemia and resource utilization compared with IF, patients aged 40-59 years who undergo IF for FNF are at increased risk of reoperation in the first 3 postoperative years. This information should be used to assist in shared decision-making with patients in this age group.

Project description:To summarize the clinical results of femoral head fracture-dislocation treated according to Pipkin classification.Atotal of 19 patients with femoral head fracture-dislocation were retrospectively analyzed from Mar. 2008 to Mar. 2015. According to the classification of Pipkin criteria, there were 4 cases in Type-I, 6 cases in Type-II, 6 cases in Type-IIIand 3 cases in Type-IV. Various procedures were taken according to the different types of the fracture, the time of the fracture, and the age of the patients. X-ray was examined during the follow-up period and functional evaluation was carried out by Harris Hip Score's criteria. The clinical therapeutic effects were analyzed.All the patientsgot a mean follow-up of 18 months (9-36 months). No patient suffered from infection, skin flap necrosis and X-ray showed no implants loosening or breakage. According to the Harris Hip Score's criteria, in Type-I, 4 cases were rated as excellent. In Type-II, 2 cases rated as excellent, 3 cases as good and 1 case as fair. In Type-III, 3 cases rated as good, 2 cases as fair and 1 case as poor. In Type-IV, 1 case rated as excellent, 1 case as good and 1 case as fair. The overall rate of excellent and good was 73.7%.Pipkin classification is helpful to make preoperative plan and judging the prognosis in cases of femoral head fracture-dislocation. However, multiple factors such as the time from injury to surgery, the ages of patients, the selection of implants should also be considered, which may affect the clinical results.

Project description:The aim of present study is to evaluate the outcome of bone marrow instillation at the fracture site in fracture of intracapsular neck femur treated by head preserving surgery.This study included 32 patients of age group 18-50 years with closed fracture of intracapsular neck femur. Patients were randomized into two groups as per the plan generated via www.randomization.com. The two groups were Group A (control), in which the fracture of intracapsular neck femur was treated by closed reduction and cannulated cancellous screw fixation, and Group B (intervention), in which additional percutaneous autologous bone marrow aspirate instillation at fracture site was done along with cannulated cancellous screw fixation. Postoperatively the union at fracture site and avascular necrosis of the femoral head were assessed on serial plain radiographs at final follow-up. Functional outcome was evaluated by Harris hip score.The average follow-up was 19.6 months. Twelve patients in each group had union and 4 patients had signs of nonunion. One patient from each group had avascular necrosis of the femoral head. The average Harris hip score at final follow-up in Group A was 80.50 and in Group B was 75.73, which was found to be not significant.There is no significant role of adding on bone marrow aspirate instillation at the fracture site in cases of fresh fracture of intracapsular neck femur treated by head preserving surgery in terms of accelerating the bone healing and reducing the incidence of femoral head necrosis.

Project description:Lameness due to femoral head separation (FHS) is a production and welfare issue in commercial poultry. FHS is an idiopathic disorder, which is attributed to a myriad of factors but in order to improve bone health, broiler breeders must be prognosed for disease susceptibility and selected against FHS using biomarkers. Proteins from plasma of blood, which can be obtained using minimally invasive methods represent an ideal, rich source of biomarkers which might be different in susceptible or affected birds. The peptide and proteins in plasma of healthy (HLTH) and affected birds (FHS) were compared using Matrix assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) and Liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The peptide profile of HLTH and FHS were compared using ClinPro tools and the differentially expressed peptides were isolated by Reverse phase liquid chromatography fractionation (C18-RP-HPLC) and identified using peptide mass fingerprinting. Peptides derived from fibrinogen precursor and fetuin were reduced in FHS birds. Based on the proteomic analysis, proteins such as Gallinacin 10, Apolipoprotein A-1 and Hemoglobin chains are elevated in FHS while Alpha 1-acid glycoprotein is reduced in FHS birds. Our study shows that bodyweight, lipid profile and the above mentioned proteins could be useful as a biomarker for improvement of bone health. These proteins indicate that blood lysis, antimicrobial defense and lipid disorder but lack of an inflammatory response might be consequential to FHS.

Project description:To our knowledge, the type of combination of ipsilateral femoral neck and sub-trochanteric fracture is rare. And the long term follow-up is seldom been reported. A 60 year old woman suffered from a traffic accident. We gave her the intramedullary nail treatment for the combination of ipsilateral femoral neck and sub-trochanteric fracture, and the fracture indeed cured after one year and there is no clue of necrosis of the femoral head, but after 5 years, there is an evidence of necrosis of the femoral head. Combination of ipsilateral femoral neck and sub-trochanteric fracture should be kept in mind. Patients with this unusual fracture should be kept under surveillance for longer than might be thought currently to be necessary for there is a possibility of necrosis of the femoral head, even a nondisplaced femoral neck fracture.

Project description:This study is the first comprehensive characterisation of the pain phenotype after fracture using both evoked and naturalistic behaviours in adult male and ovariectomised female mice. It also shows that an anti-nerve growth factor (NGF) therapy could be considered to reduce pain after fracture surgery.IntroductionBone fractures are common due to the ageing population and very painful even after healing. The phenotype of this pain is still poorly understood. We aimed to characterise it in a femoral fracture model in mice.MethodsWe employed both adult male, and female ovariectomised (OVX) mice to mimic osteoporotic fractures. Mice underwent a unilateral femoral fracture maintained by an external fixator or a sham surgery. Pain behaviours, including mechanical and thermal sensitivity, weight bearing and LABORAS, were measured from baseline to 6 weeks after fracture. The effect on pain of an antibody against nerve growth factor (anti-NGF) was assessed. Changes in nerve density at the fracture callus were analysed by immunohistochemistry.ResultsFollowing surgery, all groups exhibited high levels of invoked nociception. Mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia were observed from 1 week after surgery, with nociceptive sensitization in the fracture group maintained for the 6 weeks, whereas it resolved in the sham group after 3 weeks. OVX induced reduction in pain thresholds, which was maintained after fracture. The frequency of naturalistic behaviours did not change between groups. Anti-NGF administered before and weekly after surgery alleviated fracture-induced mechanical nociception. The density of nerve fibres in the fracture callus was similar in all groups 6 weeks after surgery.ConclusionsFractures in rodent models are highly painful in both sexes. This pain-like phenotype is prolonged and should be routinely considered in fracture healing studies as it can affect the study outcome. The anti-NGF alleviates fracture-induced mechanical pain.
